Grass Flail
• The Grass Flail head is rated for cutting grass
only.
• The Grass Flail operates attached to the boom
arm, and is ideal for cutting hard to reach
areas where a smooth cut is required.
• Cutting height ranges from 3/4” to 4” in
vegetation. Cutting height is set by adjusting
the height of the roller assembly.
• When operating near the ground or when
mulching be particularly careful that there are
no bystanders or animals with a 100 yards.
Debri tends to fly out at great speed and can
injure or even cause death.

designed for cutting material up to 6” in
diameter and then shredding the cut debris
into 3/4” diameter chips.
• It has a cutting width of 3’2”.
• Suggested cutting speed is 1st gear. Slow
down for thick, dense, or hard material.
• Open the retractable hood when cutting large
diameter vegetation to allow access to the
cutting knives. Close the hood to cut fallen
limbs into 3/4” mulch size pieces.
• When operating near the ground or when
mulching be particularly careful that there are
no bystanders or animals within a 100 yards.
Debri tends to fly out at great speed and can
injure or even cause death.
• Operate tractor in lowest gear to allow shredder time to mulch limbs.
