Always Inspect the condition of the flails and bolts on a very regular basis
Always Replace bolts and nuts when replacing flails
Always Use genuine flail bolts and nuts. The flails and bolts are made to a
very high standard from high tensile steel, being fully heat treated and
subjected to rigorous testing in very stringent conditions to comply
with our rigid quality control requirements
Never Operate with bolts loose or flails missing.
Never Change to a different spec or type of flail, this will immediately put the
