FLAIL TRIMMER- OPERATION INFORMATION
The vehicle driver should be conversant with all tractor controls and capabilities.
It is always advisable for the tractor driver to practice the controls and operations of the
Flail Trimmer, in a safe open location away from potential hazards, prior to setting off into
work.
The speed of operation of Trimming will depend on the size, quantity, and type of growth
to be cut. A slow speed to suit conditions should be selected, ensuring that engine speed
gives a PTO speed of 540rpm maximum for general use -
this 540 maximum rpm (PTO) is
recommended for best trimming results and performance, variation from this
recommended rpm should be kept to a minimum and never at any time should PTO speed
exceed 540rpm.
ROTOR ROTATION DIRECTION
Depending on the type of hedge to be cut, an option of rotation direction is offered.
The 'upward' cut is recommended for trimming grass, light growth such as one/two year’s
growth.
DOWNWARD CUTTING IS NOT RECOMMENDED
- and should only be considered
for heavier growth (maximum three year growth) - even then, it is important that
downward cutting is kept to an absolute minimum and only for short periods.
DANGER - IMPORTANT
In heavy conditions when cutting large diameter growth with front cowling removed,
the rotor MUST ALWAYS CUT DOWNWARDS AT FRONT.
At no time should the rotor be cutting upwards with the front cowling removed.
