Used 6\' 918H Ford Flail mover
I recently picked up a used 6' Ford 918H flail mover that the previous owner never used at all . I know very little about these things ,other than they can cut small brush . I have learned that New Holland now sales and has replacement parts for these . Does anyone out there have one and can you give me a few pointers on proper use , RPM speed and so forth . I headed straight for the welding shop after I purchased this and had them reweld any breaks or repair any damage they could find .
My tractor is a DK45 Kioti so I suppose it has the PTO power to do the job ??? /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif The old owner also gave me a box full of new blades ,but they are shorter than the ones on the flail mower now . It was missing two blades and the blade mounting brakets were sheared off on the mower. I wonder if I can just put two blades of the other size on ? The welding shop welded on two new mounting brackets to hold the blades .Any help or experience with one of these would be deeply appreciated .
