JANSEN® AG-220 Front & Rear Flail Mower with Hydraulic Side Shift – The Mower for the Most Demanding Applications

The JANSEN® AG-220 is a particularly powerful and extremely robust front and rear flail mower for use in agriculture, lawn care, orchards, and municipal applications. With a generous working width of approx. 217 cm, hydraulic side shift, and heavy-duty construction, this mulcher is ideal for large areas and demanding mowing tasks.

Thanks to its dual-mounting capability, the AG-220 can be used in both front and rear mounting configurations. The specially reinforced angle gearbox with 1,000 rpm also makes it ideal for operation on the front PTOs of modern tractors.

Quick Overview – Key Benefits

• Hydraulic side shift for maximum flexibility
• Front and rear mounting possible
• Robust construction for heavy-duty applications
• Reinforced 1,000 rpm angle gearbox
• 24 hardened hammer flails, approx. 1.2 kg each
• Double spiral rotor for smooth operation and reduced wear
• Heavy-duty trailing roller for a clean cut
• Freewheel transmission as standard
• Height-adjustable skids
• Galvanized protective slats against stone impact
• Ideal for tall grass, fallow fields, and straw-like cuttings

Hydraulic side shift for maximum working width

The integrated hydraulic side shift allows for flexible adjustment of the working area directly from the tractor. This makes it much easier to work around edges, ditches, fences, or obstacles.

To use the side shift, all that is required is a double-acting control unit on the tractor. Especially for professional maintenance work, this feature ensures significantly greater efficiency and time savings.

Robust construction for heavy-duty applications

The AG-220 is one of the heaviest machines in its class. Its robust construction, featuring wall thicknesses of up to 12 mm, ensures exceptional stability and a long service life—even with intensive use on agricultural, municipal, or commercial land.

The combination of a heavy flail shaft, a large trailing roller, and a sturdy frame enables low-vibration operation and excellent mulching results even with dense vegetation.

24 hardened hammer flails for perfect mulching results

The total of 24 specially hardened hammer blades, each weighing approx. 1.2 kg, generate an enormous flywheel mass and reliably reduce the cut material to a minimum.

Even tall grass, matted vegetation, fallow land, or straw-like material are processed cleanly and evenly.

Double-spiral rotor – smooth operation and lower power requirements

A special feature of the JANSEN® AG-220 is the built-in double-spiral rotor. The even distribution of the hammer blades optimizes the load on the rotor shaft.

The result:

• smoother operation
• less vibration
• less wear
• reduced power requirements
• longer component service life

This advantage is particularly noticeable during long work cycles.

Suitable for front and rear mounting

The AG-220 was specially developed for universal use and can be mounted both at the front and rear of the tractor.

The three-point hitch is designed for Category I and Category II. For front mounting, Category II is used.

Thanks to the powerful 1,000 rpm gearbox, the mulcher is ideally suited for modern tractors with a front PTO.
