• repeat this process for all the tools.

IMPORTANT

Remove and install one blade/hammer at a time to ensure blades/hammers are correctly oriented when

installed.

Replace worn blades only with original parts.

WARNING

When the blades/hammers are worn out it is necessary to replace the full set of tools.

Replacement of only some of the tools is certainly cause of the rotor unbalance, machine vibrations and

can compromise the reliability of the Flail Mower and generate risks to the operator.

CAUTION

Worn blades and hammers may be very sharp!
