3.2. Construction and operation
Fig. 2. General view of rear flail mower KBRP 200 mounted on a pantograph
Fig. 3. General view of the rear flail mower KBRP 200 mounted on a pantograph
The rear flail mower mounted on a pantograph consists of the suspension system (1) to which
the pantograph arm (2) is connected and which links the cutting unit with the suspension frame.
The miter gear (8), located on the outside of the carrier frame, is connected to the belt drive (3),
forming the carrier body. Installed inside of the carrier body is the flail-cutting shaft (7) and
the coping shaft (6). Power to the cutting shaft (7) is transferred from the ATS (4) to the miter
gear (8) and then to the belt drive (3). The belt drive transfers power directly to the flail shaft (7).
The cutting unit (7) consists of a thick-walled shaft on which the cutting blades are installed.
The mounting of
the cutting
blades works as a safeguard which protects the working elements from
overloading or damage. During operation when the resistance force of the obstacle is greater than
the centrifugal force of the blade, the blade tilts backwards and passes over the obstacle.

remove the safety pin,
lower the mower on the lifting arms of the tractor so that the bolts of the suspension frame are
approximately 50 cm above ground (Fig. 11),
make sure that the space where the mower will be opened is unobstructed and free of people,
using the lever of the external hydraulic system of the tractor lower the cutting unit so that as it
gets closer to the ground it slows down.
5.5. Preparing the mower for operation
Before starting work please observe the above-mentioned instructions. Upon completion of
these tasks the mower is considered ready for operation and the following can be done:
in order to control mower gently adjust cylinder's choke valve as desired (Fig. 17),
gently lower the cutting unit until the coping shaft makes contact with the ground,
slowly turn on the rear PTO (PTO rmp should be 540) until the flail shaft reaches nominal
speed,
put the tractor in gear and commence mowing.

5.6. Operation
5.6.1. General information about mowing
In an urban setting, to ensure that the mower works without breaking, it is recommended that
a pilot, who will mark all obstacles, should walk in front of the mower.
While crossing roads, on pedestrian crossings or other permanent obstacles the mower must
always be raised using the actuator (5) (Fig. 2).
In real life the user should use so called "common sense". In regards with this during intense
usage the cost of necessary service checks should be taken into account - see Warranty
conditions point 11.
After driving onto single bushes with diameters up to about 2 cm. the tractor should be
momentarily stopped until the mower can shred the bush completely and then slowly, in spurts,
move forward so that the cutting unit does not get clogged.
WARNING:
For thick and high vegetation, stumps etc. use heavier machinery.

6. MOUNTING AND SETTINGS
6.1. Setting mowing height
In order to level the mower please do the following: with the nut of the upper suspension
system connector adjust the setting of the cutting unit to the desired mowing height. Extending
the connector (1) (Fig. 10) increases mowing height and shortening it decreases it. To set required
mowing height please do the following: factory set mowing height is approximately 3 cm
(Fig. 21 - pos. I). Mowing height of 5, 7.5 and 8 cm. respectively (Fig. 22 - pos. II;
Fig. 23 - pos. III; Fig. 24 - pos. IV) can be obtained by removing the bolts securing
the coping shaft. Assembly should be done in accordance with Fig. 21-Fig. 24.
Fig. 21. Setting I, mowing height:~3 cm Fig. 22. Setting II, mowing height: ~5 cm
Fig. 23. Setting III, mowing height: ~7.5 cm Fig. 24. Setting IV, mowing height: ~8 cm
6.2. Maintenance
6.2.1. Inspecting the tautness of the belts of the belt drive
The tautness of the belts in the belt drive should be periodically inspected. In order to inspect
the tautness of the belts remove the cover (1) and manually check the tautness (Fig. 25). If the belts
yield by more than 2 cm, they should be tightened using bolt (2). In the event when adjustment
using the bolt cannot reduce the yield to less than 2 cm all belts should be replaced.
