McConnel is set to launch its all-new 60hp 62-Series Power Arm range at LAMMA 2026, which sits at the centre of McConnel’s Power Arm line-up, offering a combination of reach, power and value with improved performance across the board.
Available in 5.1m, 5.5m and 5.7m configurations, the range also includes a 5.5m Variable Forward Reach (VFR) model, providing improved visibility of the cutting head and reduced operator fatigue during long working hours.
New features across the series include high-visibility LED road lighting, a redesigned hydraulic tank, a two-piece rear guard for improved service access, and a sculpted polypropylene top cover that protects key components from debris and moisture ingress. Power Slew range has also been increased to 120 degrees, improving manoeuvrability when cutting out corners and ensuring a compact, secure transport position.
McConnel’s proven parallel-arm and Hy-Reach geometry come as standard, alongside seam-welded C-section profiled arms for maximum strength-to-weight ratio.
At the heart of the 62-Series is McConnel’s in-house designed and built 60hp gear hydraulic system, paired with a 180-litre oil tank and high-capacity cooler for consistent performance in demanding conditions. An external debris blower is available as an option.
Customers can choose from cable controls or the Motion proportional electric control system, providing precise fingertip control and improved operator comfort. Cable rotor control is supplied as standard, with an electric rotor control available as an option.
The 62-Series Power Arms can be fitted to tractors over 70hp and 3 tonnes via the three-point linkage with an integrated stabiliser A-frame for added rigidity and stability. An optional four-point mounting system is also available, adding an additional connection point to the tractor’s pick-up hitch for increased stability.
Manufactured in the UK at McConnel’s Ludlow facility, the 62-Series is compatible with a comprehensive range of attachments, including 1.2m and 1.5m flailheads with a choice of flails. Hydraulic front hood and hydraulic rear roller options are also available. A comprehensive range of sawheads, rotary heads, cutterbars and a heavy-duty ditch and grip cleaner can also be fitted.
