Whether it’s a natural garden, an orchard, difficult terrain, or a slope: the AL-KO BM 875 IV scythe mower is your incredibly powerful, versatile specialist for maintaining and managing your natural meadows. It’s also economical for forage grass production, on animal paddocks, and more! It’s the workhorse for rough work—yet still guarantees ecological garden care.
This petrol cylinder mower impresses with efficient mowing results on a large scale – in proven AL-KO quality. Independent and extremely manoeuvrable, it handles all mowing tasks quickly and efficiently with a cutting width of 87 cm. The extremely powerful 2.7 kW petrol engine with wheel drive ensures easy cutting and reliable cutting, even in tall undergrowth, dense vegetation, off-road and on slopes. This is where the machine demonstrates its great manoeuvrability, which allows it to handle any meadow edge and field boundary. This is made possible by its short design, the extra-large wide tires with off-road tread, and the ergonomic, height-adjustable, vibration-damped handlebar.
Cutting performance without compromise: The 87 cm cutter bar features a specially hardened blade from the quality brand ESM – made in Germany. This guarantees durability and minimal wear in the densest undergrowth, during continuous use, and during extended downtimes.
With its powerful 2.7 kW gasoline engine and a cutting width of 87 cm, this AL-KO scythe mower delivers the cutting power you need to tackle lawns up to 3000 m² quickly, efficiently, and effortlessly. This workhorse guarantees it can tackle virtually any undergrowth and terrain. The movable grass deflector prevents grass from accumulating on the cover, thus reducing work interruptions.
The motor ensures fast and smooth operation of the blades attached to the cutter bar and drives the switchable wheel drive (1 forward gear) via a worm gear. Combined with the height-adjustable, vibration-damped handlebar for perfect implement guidance and the 13-inch wide tires with farmer’s tread, this ensures optimal handling in any terrain and on slopes up to approximately 20°.
The heart of the BM 875 IV mower is the 87 cm wide cutter bar with edge protection to protect the blade and ensure safe handling. Its extra-hardened high-performance blade from the German manufacturer ESM combines powerful mowing performance and optimal cutting results with durability and minimal wear – whether in continuous use or during extended downtimes (seasonal use). The encapsulated drive increases operating time by significantly reducing dirt and grass residue on the blade. The continuously height-adjustable soles and the extreme mobility of the machine also ensure comfortable work.
Note: The information on mowing areas may vary depending on the nature of the material being mowed (grass height, density, moisture level, etc.).
