Built not to a price point, but instead to simply get the toughest undergrowth-clearances job done with the minimum of fuss, the Orec HR622 Pedestrian Flail Mower is aimed at local authorities, professional landscapers and domestic users maintaining expansive grounds.
Driving it is an impressively powerful and reliable Honda GX270 engine; an air-cooled four-stroke OHV unit with a beefy 6.8hp power-rating and a substantial 270cc cylinder-displacement.
Premium engine features include a decompression-valve for low-effort pull-starts; a cast-iron cylinder sleeve for durability and superior compression; and a large-capacity fuel-tank (5.3 litres) that combines with the fuel-efficient overhead-valve design to ensure extended run-times between breaks to top-up.
Thanks to its series of 38 heavy-duty flail blades, the Orec HR662 will take shoulder-high grass, overgrown weeds and dense scrub in its stride.
Its four-speed gearbox (3 + 1) provides a forward speed for every eventuality and ensures you’ll have no trouble backing-out of tight spots; while its differential lock means you can summon-up plenty more traction when conditions demand it.
The Orec HR662 has a relatively compact 65cm working-width and a side-clutch steering system, so it can be manoeuvred with ease around and between obstacles.
It has an infinitely-variable cutting-height (20 - 80mm), so the blade position can be set with the utmost accuracy; and it’s built around a tubular-steel frame, which confers the sort of strength and durability that commercial contractors deem essential.
