Flail Replacement
When the flails are worn, they must all be
replaced. In case of a partially broken flail it is
advisable to replace the broken one and the
one diametrically opposite, in order to maintain
the balance (Figure 21).

Pipe Replacement

engine stopped and using all control levers.
•
Pay particular attention to cleanliness as dirt and dust can cause considerable
damage to the hydraulic system
•
Replace any damaged pipes with genuine spare parts or with others of the same
specification; ensure that they are not kinked or twisted, remembering to check this
throughout the entire cycle of arm movement.
9.3
Pin Replacement
•
Carry out this operation with the aid of a lift or hoist, to prevent detached
component from falling, and also to avoid upsetting the balance of the machine.
•
When replacing parts, clean and grease their housings.
9.4
Belt Replacement
This operation must be carried out with the flail head touching the ground, the power
takeoff disconnected and the ignition key out.
•
Remove the beltguard, loosen the screws (1) (Figure 14), unscrew the tightener
(2), remove the belts and replace them with similar ones for dimensions and type.
