14.1 SCARIFYING BLADES.
The Turf Tidy is standard delivered with fixed scarifier blades 2 ( see Fig. 9.).
When hard objects are to be expected, reduce the rpm’s of the PTO till about 300 rpm’s. The
blades may break and dangerous circumstances may appear.
Do not replace any worn blades for new ones. Always replace the full set, because the
balance may be jeopardized.
If not all material is picked up, two brush elements can be assembled. Assemble them in the
position closest to the rotor center (hole 13). These two brushes should always be opposite
each other on the rotor.
If you want to enlarge the distance between the slits, remove 4 rows of blades, out of the
standard 8.
14.2 FLAIL BLADES.
Two flail blades are available, see fig. 9.:
1.
Back to back flail blades, # 4
2.
Plain flail blades # 9.
Both blades are to be assembled into hole 10.
For part numbers of the blades and the kits, see the attached spare part pages.
It is very important to read and understand chapter 6.0, which explains centrifugal forces,
wear, load on the blades and ground speed.
