- I'm Phil Stam.
I'm a project engineer,
and I currently lead the mower team.
During my 11 years at Vermeer,
I've earned six patents
while being on a number of
design projects.
Some of my favorite projects have been
the TM850 trailed mower,
the BPX9010 bale processor,
and the 504R Classic baler.
When I'm not at Vermeer, I
operate my small family farm.

By leading the mower engineering team,
I've obviously seen tremendous growth
in the trailed mower market.
But the reality is three-point disc mowers
continue to own the majority
of the market share.
One thing continues to
plague operators, though,
every time a three-point mower is hooked up
somebody wishes they had a different job.
It can be hard to connect.
Sometimes they even need
to call a friend to help.
That's too much work for
a small machine like this.
Most mowers in the three-point market
are historically very
similar to each other.
Our engineering team
decided to change that.
Built right, right here in Pella, Iowa,
our team is excited to show
you what we've been working on
with the next generation
of three-point mowers.
