Maintenance
General Maintenance
To ensure efficient operation, you should inspect,
lubricate, and make necessary adjustments and repairs
at regular intervals. Parts that are starting to show
wear should be ordered ahead of time, before a costly
breakdown occurs and you have to wait for replacement
parts. Keep good maintenance records, and adequately
clean your flail mower after each use.
When reassembling components, always use new lock
nuts and a thread-locking compound to insure against
vibration loosening. Use an anti-seize compound on all
bearing/shaft contacts.

Lubrication
Grease Points Location
The operation and component lifetimes of this machine
are very dependent on regular and proper lubrication.
The frequency of lubrication recommended is based on
normal conditions. Severe or unusual conditions may
determine actual service requirements.
Use a #2 general purpose lithium based grease unless
noted otherwise.
NOTE:
Replace any broken or missing grease fittings.
Be sure to clean fittings before greasing.
NOTE: Rotor and roller bearings cannot be damaged
by over-greasing. Grease bearings until a small
amount of grease is purged from the bearing.
NOTE: Grease point decals as shown above are placed
on the machine near all grease zerks.
See “Hydraulic Flail Mower Identification” on page 10
to aid in component location and identification.
