Large area Rotary Roller Mower

Hi, 

We have been using a Allett buffalo 27 cylinder mowing for our large area mowing. To get it to where it needs to be involves driving it over bumpy paving etc and it constantly needs setting up. This isn't a fault of the machine, just not the correct machine for us.

I am looking at replacing it with a rotary roller mower, my question is what is the largest width rotary roller pedestrian mower available? We use lawnflight pro 553 hrs but hope for something a smidge larger. Has to be a pedestrian machine.

Thanks In Advance 

Rob

  • They are all 21/22 inch as far as I'm aware
  • Allett do a 34" roller (rm34) but it is called a pitch mower so not sure whether it would stand up well on bumpy lawns.

    Have you checked to see if travelling wheels are available for the Allet Buffalo?

      How much do you want for the cylinder?
      • Hi Richard, open to offers really. They are on ebay for 1200-2500 varying widths but none are as good condition as the one we have. if it had an hour metre it would probably be maximum 30. Lister wilder the dealer bought it in 2010 when it was manufactured then it sat in their shed for 4 years. We then bought it late on in 2014 used it twice and stored for the winter, used very sparingly one hour a week 2015. Then at the end of 2015 it went for a service, it would benefit from a sharpen and set up but mechanically its sound. It has not been used in 2016, started it ran it over some grass for 20 secs to make sure everything ok but not used since.

        I can send photos if you want just send me your email. Thanks Rob

          Too rich for me at the minute spent too much as it is! If it was £500 or so I could have sneaked it past the wife but not £2000 or more. Thanks anyway and I hope you find it a good home as they are great machines if a bit heavy.
  • I just purchased a 22" rover pro, crank shaft protection. Does mulch and pick up. Downside its 4 wheel so no strip, but an awesome piece of kit for £700 al in, non of this £1,1100 Honda stuff. 

    Contemplating getting a 2nd.
