New member with question about newsed Alamo flail

[carson84]

Hello! New member here with a question about an Alamo flail mower I recently purchased. I knew absolutely nothing about flail mowers prior to this and I'm still trying to figure out exactly what I have. After doing some research here and elsewhere, I do know that it's an Alamo brand 7' flail with a rough cut shaft. I know it's a shd88 and it was previously a commercial unit (maybe road crew?). It's been sitting up a few years but is in decent shape with all components moving freely. It was missing one clevis so I purchased it and the blades from flail-master last week (awesome company). What I'm trying to figure out now is if I have a normal cutter or a reverse rotation cutter. I'm hoping someone can tell from these pics. Thanks

The way it's set up will give a finish cut or reverse rotation. To change it to a rough cut the 3pt linkage and PTO need to be changed over to the rear as you now look at it.
