I recently picked up a TL1500 Caroni Flail mower. All in all love the mower.
I'm using the mower to mow 1.5 acres of generally manicured lawn. There are a few areas of brush that will be converted to lawn shortly, which was one of the justifications for the flail mower.
My issue is that when I turn sometimes one skid will make a very sizable gash in the yard. I believe I have the roller and skids set up appropriately (both are at same height per instructions). I can minimize this by slightly lifting the 3pt as I turn, but that isn't ideal either as my cut height is increased in corners.
Are others running into this issue? How are you guys dealing w/ this? It seems a different skid design would avoid this issue.
