FLAIL HEAD INSPECTION
•Inspect blades and blade bolts for looseness and excessive wear. Rotate to 90° to make for checking easier. Replace damaged, worn, and missing blades as complete sets to maintain cuttershaft balance.
•Ensure rubber deflectors are in position and not damaged. Replace worn, broken, and missing sections immediately.
•Ensure the rollers are in good condition and rotate freely.
•Inspect that all bolts and screws are in position and are properly torqued.
•Ensure hydraulic lines are properly connected to the hydraulic motor. Check for hydraulic leaks along hoses and fittings. DO NOT use your hands to check for oil leaks. Use a piece of heavy paper or cardboard to check for hydraulic oil leaks.
•Inspect the condition of the drive belts.
•Ensure the drive belt shields are in place and in good repair.
•Remove any grass or other debris which may be wrapped around the cuttershafts ends.
•Inspect the condition of deck skid shoes and hardware.
Do not put hands or feet under mower decks. Blade Contact can result
in serious injury or even death. Stay away until all motion has stopped and the decks are securely blocked up.
