I will me mowing a wide rage of items with it. I
have been mowing an old trailer park ( complete with junk still in it) that is
being slowly turned into a park, I have also mowed mantained fields, old fields
(with trees regrowing etc.) multi flora rose bushes, weeds, etc.
I live in WV which is rarely with out some type of hill and rock etc. I am
mowing along rivers, on top of mountians and everything in the middle.
I have been doing all of this with 2 brush hogs. One I consider junk as It really
does not mow well but I take it to jobs where if it breaks it is no big loss( ie hit
a big stump, rock, mowing down small trees, trash, etc.
On the other brush hog the side is removable and I do mow hay with it. It does
a pretty good job with a clean cut.
I know that a flail will not totally do what I am doing with either but
is rather a totally different beast.
I know that for some jobs I will still be using the junk brush hog, Others the
better one. What I hope to do is use the flail as a go between. It will be wider
and I am hoping for a good cut quality.
With that said though I dont know what type of rotor and blades or knifes I
need. I will not really be cutting down trees with it but I will likely hit rocks,
stumps, trash, etc. with it.
I would like it to give a high quality finish with one pass. ( not leave
stubs sticking up etc, also I dont like having to remow espically when I am
charging someone.
I want to be able to mow old fields that are growing up with multiflora rose,
small saplings, weeds, etc., and have a nice finish.
I also want to be able to mow the park with it and leave a nice finish no stubs
etc.
So what type of blades should I be looking at. I know that the hammer type
cost more to replace but most do not have shackels. So if you take the cost of
both the shackle and the knife and compare it to a single hammer I think it
closes the gap some on cost.
With all of that said would a B type rotor or the P type Rotor from Caroni be
better for me?
Also in looking at the picture of both the B and P rotor the mounts look the
same best I can tell in the picture.
So if I ordered the P rotor type could I also order the B blades and switch between
the 2 for the best of both. I do understand that it would be all the blades no
mix and match.
I don't mind spending a little more if it will work better for me-a few 100 not
1,000.
Lastly and maybe someone else can tell me I am assuming that the P rotor is a
hammer type blade in the picture, If it is not and actually a scoop type how
does that compair.
Thanks for the input.
This is the link to where I got the picture.
