Yes, they will noting the horsepower of the tractor must be sufficient and suited correctly to the flail mower. However we do not recommend the WFM125 model for heavy duty mowing. A minimum of 30HP is recommended but better a 30HP on the WFM145 or a 40HP on the WFM175 thus giving the maximum horsepower to the related model of flail mower.
