    I'm looking to hire a flail mower for a quad bike in the Limerick / North Tipp / East Clare area.
    Anyone know where I'd hire one? I've a few acres of rushes to deal with.

    If not available to hire, anyone selling second hand? Or is buying second hand a good idea?

    Saw a good 1 on donedeal, looking €3000.
    Allot of money too.

    We bought a mower fitted with a Loncin 16HP Engine. Belt driven with 3 blades for cutting. It cost €1800 and it has been great. We had some rushes that were over 3ft tall and it mowed them, now that was keeping it at the highest possible and it did leave a bit of a butt behind but I left them to rot and went over them again at the lowest level, mulched them completely. If this machine did our rushes it will do any rush in the country, that's how thick our was.
