Perfect Flail Toppers

 

 

Down to Rotary Toppers

'Perfect' flail toppers are compact and of heavy construction. Their full width rear roller and the skids at either side provide easy handling and excellent working height adjustment, preventing unwanted ground contact and unnecessary wear of flails.
The indirect drive is through an oil bath gearbox and V belts with an automatic maintenance friendly belt tensioner.
For certain applications it recommended that rear wheels are used instead of the rear roller. All 'Perfect' flail toppers can be equipped with two rear 6.00 X 9 wheels with pneumatic tyres, the wheel track is adjustable in width.
The machine can be delivered with a parallelogram headstock, which allows for a quick and easy adjustment into the offset position required. With an optional extra ram for hydraulic offset adjustment, it can be controlled from the tractor seat.
'Perfect' flail toppers can also be used front mounted. The reversible headstock allows these models to be used either front or rear mounted. The cantilever design of the headstock enables the front mounted flail toppers to be pulled rather than pushed. This protects the machine and provides a full floatation effect. A reversible gearbox accepts either clockwise or anti-clockwise rotation.
The strong, electronically balanced flail rotor is suspended in two self-aligning heavy duty bearings. High quality forged steel flails (0.7kg/1.5lbs) are mounted on replaceable steel bushes. They overlap generously, and their flat single cutting edges ensure a clean and neat cut.

* Excellent spreading of finely chopped grass over full cutting width
* Better, more regular regrowth of pasture
* Rear rollers to regulate cutting height and protect machine
* Cut material does not fly forward to the tractor driver
* Simple to clean and maintain

Flail toppers series KC (pictured above)

These 'Perfect' flail toppers are specially designed for heavy duty usage such as estate maintenance, pasture topping - even of rough and very overgrown land, maintenance of fallow land and set-aside land etc. As a rule the flail toppers can also be used for heavy duty topping in light scrub, as well as for chopping corn stalks etc.

* Power requirements depend entirely on the type of work.
A PTO shaft with overload clutch must be used with over sized tractors.

 

Flail toppers series KT

This heavier duty flail topper is designed to deal with greater quantities that may be mulched in fallow land, set-aside land, for chopping cornstalks etc.

In comparison with the standard KC model the heavy duty KT version has the following features:
* More spacious and heavier body
* Heavier duty gearbox and an additional V-belt
* Larger diameter flail rotor
* Larger diameter rear roller

* Power requirements depend entirely on the type of work.
A PTO shaft with overload clutch must be used with over sized tractors.

 

Rotary toppers series LB

The 'Perfect' series LB pasture toppers are sturdily built using a simple box construction. Long rounded skids on both sides follow the ground contours easily and allow fast working speeds up to 8-10km/h = 5-6.5mph.
An optional rear bolt-on steel roller is available to prevent skids marking soft ground for parkland use, and to prevent blades scalping on undulating ground.
The cut material is evenly spread over the full cutting width. A front plate prevents material being thrown forward.
Blades are made from special alloy spring steel, and have double cutting edges for 100% longer life. All cutter blades overlap generously to prevent striping. Optional swing-tip blades give added protection in rough or stony conditions.
The indirect, flexible V belt drive of all rotor spindles protects the gears against shockloads. Belt tension is easily adjustable. Most belts have an automatic spring loaded belt tensioner.
The cantilever design headstock enables the front mounted version of our rotary toppers to be pulled rather than pushed. This protects the machine and provides a full floatation effect. A reversible gearbox accepts either clockwise or anti clockwise rotation.
Models LB-245V and LB-275V can be offset to cut clear of the left hand tractor wheel track.

* Power requirements depend entirely on the type of work.
A PTO shaft with overload clutch must be used with over sized tractors.
