JANSEN® AGF-240 Slope Mower – Maximum Working Width for the Most Demanding Applications

The JANSEN® AGF-240 is the most powerful model in the AGF series and was developed specifically for professional use in agriculture, municipal services, and landscape maintenance. With a generous cutting width of 239 cm, hydraulic side adjustment, and a wide swivel range, this slope mower is ideal for slopes, ditches, riverbanks, roadsides, farm roads, and large green spaces.

Thanks to its extra-heavy-duty construction, reinforced bevel gearbox, and solid hammer blades, the AGF-240 delivers high stability, a long service life, and excellent mowing results even under the toughest operating conditions.

Maximum reach for hard-to-reach areas

The AGF-240 was specially developed for working on embankments, ditches, and road shoulders. Thanks to the hydraulic side adjustment, the mulcher can be positioned far to the side of the tractor, allowing it to reach even hard-to-reach areas.

The mulching unit can be hydraulically swiveled up to 90° and down to 55°. Two double-acting hydraulic control units on the tractor are required for side shift and tilt adjustment.

At maximum extension, the distance between the center of the tractor and the outer edge of the mulcher is an impressive approx. 329 cm.

Robust construction for continuous use

The JANSEN® AGF-240 is one of the heaviest machines in its class and was developed for daily use under demanding conditions.

• Widened mulching housing
• Heavily reinforced three-point hitch
• Reinforced flail shaft
• Reinforced rear roller
• Sturdy transport rollers
• Improved impact protection

With a net weight of approx. 930 kg, the mulcher offers exceptionally smooth operation and stability.

24 heavy hammer blades for perfect mulching results

The total of 24 specially hardened hammer blades, each weighing approximately 1.2 kg, provide enormous inertia and reliably shred even dense material.

In combination with the integrated 2 counter blades, grass, brush, fallow land, straw, and dense vegetation are shredded particularly finely. Even tall grass or bushy clippings pose no challenge for the AGF-240.

Double-spiral rotor for smooth operation and lower power requirements

The built-in double-spiral rotor distributes the load evenly across the entire working width. This reduces vibrations, improves smoothness of operation, and lowers the tractor’s power requirements.

The advantages:

• Smooth operation
• Less vibration
• Lower power requirements
• Reduced wear
• Longer component service life
• Clean and even cut

Safety and Comfort in Everyday Work

The integrated collision protection reduces the risk of major damage in the event of collisions with obstacles. If the mower strikes fence posts or stones, for example, it can swerve away in a controlled manner.

The heavy-duty trailing roller with scraper ensures optimal ground contact. Pendulum-suspended protective slats at the front reduce the ejection of stones and clippings. Additionally, the standard transport rollers make maneuvering on paved surfaces easier.

Includes ball valve for float mode

Includes ball valve: The JANSEN® AGF-240 comes standard with a practical ball valve solution for activating float mode on the hydraulic cylinder.

The robust shut-off valve allows for easy switching between transport mode and float mode. This enables the mower to adapt flexibly to the terrain and better follow uneven ground, slopes, or road shoulders.

Simple, robust, and maintenance-free

• Mechanical solution without an electrical connection
• Quick switching to float mode via ball valve
• Optimal ground adaptation on uneven terrain
• Compatible with all JANSEN® AGF slope mowers
• Low-maintenance and durable
• No additional hydraulic circuit required

The ball valve solution enables simple and reliable use of the floating position and significantly improves work quality, especially on uneven terrain.

Ideal for professional slope and green space maintenance

The JANSEN® AGF-240 is ideal for maintaining slopes, roadside ditches, riverbanks, field edges, fallow land, and municipal and agricultural green spaces.

Thanks to its enormous working width and long reach, even large areas can be maintained efficiently and cost-effectively.

Delivery & Assembly

The machine is delivered securely packaged and disassembled in a sturdy wooden crate. Allow approximately 4–5 hours for final assembly.

The package includes a German operating manual and an exploded view diagram. Assembly is generally straightforward but is ideally performed by two people.

Before initial operation, the transmission must be filled with approximately 1.2 liters of 80W90 transmission oil.

Note:
Since the shipping company is unable to unload the item due to its size, the customer must arrange for a forklift or similar equipment.
