AS 65 Scout

Efficient young forest care. The AS 65 Scout is ideal for mowing planting and reforestation areas, effortlessly cutting and mulching fast-growing saplings up to 40 mm thick via a highly stable blade system with an underrun guard. The result is a natural mulch, enriching the soil with organic nutrients. The machine is powered by a Briggs & Stratton Series 3 INTEK engine with up to 13.0 hp and an oil and fuel pump. The engine and blade are decoupled via a V-belt, providing additional protection in case of larger unseen obstacles. Propulsion occurs via a 5-speed manual transmission with reverse gear (1.9 km/h) that covers a speed range from 1.3–3.9 km/h. Work rates reaching 2,500 m² per hour are possible due to a powerful Briggs & Stratton engine with up to 13.0 hp and a 65 cm cutting width. A permanently locked limited slip differential is opened via an operating lever, allowing simple maneuvering and excellent propulsion and traction, especially on slopes. An automatic parking brake engages as soon as the AS 65 Scout is moved out of drive, stopping the mower on both slopes and level ground and providing even more safety. The young forest mower is very easy to control via just three operating levers, which activate the drive function, the limited slip differential, the parking brake and the blade drive. Moreover, the AS 65 Scout has a guide bar that can be easily adjusted laterally and in height.
