HYDRAULIC CONTROLS - CUTTING POSITION

 

 

The cutting head must at all times be lowered gently into the cutting position. Never ‘drop’ 
a flailhead into a hedge at speed. 
When cutting at ground level (grass etc.) the head must be lowered gently to give a slight 
contact pressure of roller to ground.

 

 

WARNING: 

 

Ensure flailhead does not come into contact with obstacles such as rocks, stones, stumps 
etc.  Keep rotor away and free from wire, as to entangle wire in a rotor is both dangerous 
and costly. 
Should  large  obstacles  be  encountered  or  wire  become  entangled  in  the  rotor 

stop 

immediately

 and reset or clear before continuing.  

 

DANGER WARNING 

Always stop machine, switch off engine and pocket the key before  

attempting to remove any items that foul the flailhead. 

 

Normal  obstacles  and  level  variations  should  be  overcome  by  the  operator  slowing 
'forward motion' and raising/lowering the booms of trimmers to suit. 
 

CUTTING HEAD

 

 

The cutting head rotor has been balanced prior to fitting; this will ensure a vibration free 
cutting unit. 
Should the rotor become blocked for any reason, hit an obstacle, loose a blade or blades, 
the rotor may be put into a state of unbalance.  This will result in vibration from the rotor 
being transmitted through the head. Should this happen 

stop immediately

, as to continue 

may have serious consequences. 
Once stopped clean rotor and check for loss of blades and bolts, replace as required. 
As  a  result  of  hitting  solid  objects  with  serious  force  the  rotor  can  be  bent,  this  will 
obviously  cause  vibrations.  In  such  cases  the  only  answer  will  be  to  get  the  rotor 
repaired/rebalanced or replaced.

 

 
Keep the cutting blades VERY SHARP: the flailhead should be inspected daily. Bolts and 
nuts holding flails to rotor should be checked frequently and kept 

tight. 

Missing or broken 

flails  should  be  replaced  immediately,  as  the  imbalance  will  rapidly  harm  bearings  and 
structure. When a flail is renewed its opposing flail (or pair if using Back to Back flails) 
should be renewed also in order to maintain balance. 
Check  ‘vee’  belt  tension  on  cutter  head  daily:  a  load  of  5  Kgs 

(10  lbs.)

  should  give  a 

deflection  of  9mm  at  these  pulley  centres.  Access  to  the  belts  is  by  removing  the  guard 
panel  on  the  side  of  the  drive  end.  Tension  is  adjusted  by  first  slackening  the  bolts 
mounting the motor 

(nuts are held from turning on the inside).

 The nuts on the threaded 

adjuster  can  now  be  turned  to  give  the  required  tension  and  then  re-tightened  and  the 
motor mounting bolts then tightened also.
