    Flail Mower  Can't keep the cutter shaft bolt tight on my flail mower!

    I'm nearly at my wits end. I love the way my old Mott flail cuts, but about every 10 min or so I have to stop and tighten the bolt that holds the cuttershaft tight to the bearing on the right side. I ordered a new bolt, lock washer, and larger lock washer. Supposedly there was a bushing that...

    Flail Mower Cutter Shaft bolt issue

    I got this Mott Flail a couple months ago. I had to replace the bearing that used to sit on this side of the cutter shaft because the old one was totally shot. After I did, I put in the bolt and tightened it, but for the life of me I can't keep it tight! After mowing for a bit with it, the...

    Mott Flail mower bearing

    So like I had mentioned earlier in another post, I got this 72" Mott flail mower from junk yard of sorts. Turns out one of the bearings on the cuttershaft had no balls to it. Instead of buying the bearing listed on Flailmaster for it, I went to a local bearing shop. They looked at it puzzled...

    Swisher ZTR or another brand?

    My wife and I are selling one of our tractors and our mower in hopes to get a zero turn. I'm probably mowing a little over 2 acres right now with a 46 in Husqvarna lawn tractor. It takes a while. We have been looking at the Swisher 60 in model ZTR, and I like the price on it, but has anyone...

    Flail mower ID

    Just picked this up yesterday from a junk yard, but I can't find a badge on it anywhere with a brand or model number. It has a John Deere belt on it though. Any ideas from the flail masters out there? I can get other pictures if it would help. thanks Aaron Uploaded with ImageShack.us

    Slip Clutch or Shear Bolt?

    I've got a 6ft rotary mower, and it has a slip clutch. Its the type that uses a hammer nut to tighten the discs. I don't like it. It doesn't take much tall grass to get it to slip, and when it does, I have to stop and lift the mower until it starts spinning again. Anyway, I'm selling it...

    Used 3720 or new 3520?

    Found a used 3720 at a dealer about an hour and a half a way. It has 860 hours on it, but from pictures it looks decent. The dealer replaced a seal up front, but says its now in good shape. It has rear hydraulics and the 300cx loader. And its price is firmly at $5k less than a new 3520 with...

    Need help deciding what to buy...don't know much.

    Like everyone else in the world, my wife and I are looking at CUTs. We currently have a Long 445 we've been using for mowing, but its time we get something with a loader. I don't really think we need the 43 hp the Long has, and I'd like something that sits a little smaller. We've got 60 acres...
