Contact us for current availability and factory lead times.

Overview

220 HP highway brushcutter with a 15 m telescopic arm that reaches over guard rails. 90 degree rotating FOPS-ROPS cab paired with bidirectional travel, so the operator never has to turn the machine around.

Who This Is For

State DOTs and large county highway departments running interstate and primary-route vegetation programs where reach, cab safety, and uptime all matter at the same time. The Athena is the boom mower spec when nothing smaller can finish the route.

Ideal Applications

Interstate and primary highway shoulder mowing

Reaching over and behind guard rails and barriers

Aerial pruning of overhead vegetation on travel lanes

Right-of-way reclamation on neglected corridors

Railway and utility corridor vegetation work

What Sets It Apart

The 15 m telescopic arm clears guard rails and works behind them in a single pass, eliminating the need to stage hand crews or close lanes for trim work. Bidirectional travel and the 90 degree rotating FOPS-ROPS cab mean the operator can run the route in either direction without turning around, which is the single biggest driver of throughput on long highway loops. Four independent hydraulic circuits keep arm, work head, and chassis functions running simultaneously without lag.

Common Upgrade Path

DOT districts running smaller boom mowers that cannot reach behind barriers, requiring a separate hand crew or sub-contract for guard-rail work, or fleets where lane-closure exposure during traditional shoulder mowing has become a safety and overtime problem.

When to Consider a Different Model

If most of your work is municipal roadside grass, the Athena is more machine than the route needs. The Aspen or Alpha cover that scope with lower acquisition cost. For dedicated heavy-brush mulching on slopes, a Robo carrier with a forestry head is the safer specification.
