Customer requests, especially from the Scandinavian market, have once again created a unique product based on experience from existing, proven chain mower models. The model has been developed in response to requests from customers to develop a chain mower that can clear both centre and roadside verges without having to change machines.
Our development and production departments have worked hard to meet this requirement, as there is apparently no machine that can do both. The new FKR-152 chain mower with swivel arms is the machine to fill this gap.
The FKR-152 chain mower has a built-in combination of features that make it very flexible. With hydraulic swivel arms, the machine can be pushed one metre to the side in relation to the centre position. This enables the machine to carry out both the clearing of the central verge when it is positioned centrally and the roadside verge when it is turned sideways.
In addition, the chain cutting shield itself is hydraulically tiltable at an angle of up to 30°, so it can automatically adapt to the terrain. The machine is therefore very suitable for field and gravel roads, narrow forest roads and paths through dense vegetation and changing landscape.
Clearing vegetation places high demands on quality and durability, as there are often stones and other things hidden in the tall grass and many leaves. Therefore, the model has 2 steel chains in G100 quality. Power is transmitted by a three-track powerbelt belt drive, which, in addition to transmitting high power to the work, also absorbs vibrations coming from the chains.
The wear shoes are made of Hardox 500 metal and the main frame is built of Domex 420 high-strength steel. In addition, a reinforced rubber cover is fitted to the back to protect against flying objects.

Work area diagram for FKR-150.
The powerful cylinder ensures optimal operation of the machine.
The greasable swivel joint is mounted on a 75 mm axle and 2 half bushes, which are made of special steel and mounted with greasable bolts.
All assembly bolts mounted on the FKR-152 are galvanised.
The chain head is mounted with a steel hub on the gearbox axle. The axle is well protected by the leg of the cast steel gearbox.
The gearbox is mounted on a reinforced mounting plate, which is fitted with a raised vent as standard.
A durable 3-piece rubber cover helps hold the material in place.
The adjustment bolt for the large pulley ensures that you always have a 100% straight drive line on the power belt.
All Fransgård chain mowers have 2 x 10 mm chains as standard. The chains are easily changed by knocking out the 2 pipe splitters.
The offset adjustment cylinder has a locking valve with a handle, which is activated during transport and ensures that the machine does not fold out.
The 3-point suspension has a galvanised hook for the PTO axle when the machine is parked. The hook is easily turned away when the machine is working.
To relieve the machine from impact during work, the 3-point suspension has 1 compression spring that is released and pushes the machine back into place.
Ventilated belt guard with a service hole to check if the belt is tightened.
The external belt tensioner makes it easy to tighten the belt.
The machine has hydraulic offset adjustment of up to 115 cm.
The chain mower is clearly marked with large yellow safety warnings.
The shield is built in durable Domex 420 steel quality and has a design that requires a smaller turning radius.
The strong horns on each side of the front and the guard with reinforced edge guide the material into the machine. The guard is prepared for mounting chain falls.
Holder for hydraulic hoses is standard.
The Hardox-500 slide rails are designed to slide easily over tree stumps, etc.
All rotating joints have the option of grease lubrication.
The 2 support legs ensure stable parking of the machine and are easily lifted and fixed during work, so they are always accessible on the machine.
The top bar attachment on the FKR has both a fixed and an elongated hole. By using the elongated hole, the machine follows a hilly terrain better.
