• always perform changes and reverse of direction with PTO disengaged and the Flail Mower slightly lifted
from the ground to avoid damage to the machine;
• periodically check for foreign objects wrapped around the rotor shaft and remove them, after disenga-
ging PTO, turning off tractor engine, and removing ignition key;
• if the rotor strikes a foreign object, stop operating immediately, idle the engine speed and disengage
the PTO. Wait for stopping of all rotating parts, then raise the implement and proceed to check and
remove the object, after stopped the tractor, set the parking brake, stopped engine and removed the
ignition key. Repair any damages immediately, and make sure rotor is in good condition before restar-
ting operation;
• avoid overheating of the gearbox due to materials extremely difficult to shred, in order to avoid dama-
ges of the gearbox.
Typical problems that may occur operating the Flail Mower are described into Troubleshooting section,
together with their solutions.
