MACHINE DESCRIPTION & PURPOSE OF USE
The RHD
series of machines are ‘3-point linkage’ tractor mounted universal
flail mower/shredders designed primarily for the mulching of grasses,
brambles, small bushes, branches, vines, and general crop residues. Their
tough construction, working widths of 2.3, 2.5 or 2.8m and offset capability of
up to 0.5m makes them ideal for maintenance use in all green areas,
vineyards, orchards, on verges and in scrubland by farmers and contractors
alike.
These machines should only be used to perform tasks for which they were
designed
– use of the machine for any other function may be both dangerous
to persons and damaging to components and is therefore not advisable.
