    Flail Mower Let's talk flail mowers

    Thanks. Leonz Plenty of tools. I slowed a bit on the project as I can’t find any wheels or tires on the website you mentioned. I can bring the wheels to tractor supply to get tires fitted. I’m in WA. Not sure where you are. Yes my Honda has a winch. Mathew’s flail is very cool. Thanks

    dieselscou80 and toolslinger: thanks for the replies. the idler pulley does not move. It seems like it was fixed in a certain position. Perhaps welded along the base. I tried to remove the spring so the arm connected to the idler pulley could loosen. even with the idler pulley off the belt...

    thanks Ning. I was able to remove the tensioner pulley and it would still not go over the larger pulleys. The tensioner is removed easily. Thanks for your help.

    Curious if anyone knows how to replace the belt on a vintage Mott model 72? Is there a trick to making this fit? It is a factory belt but I couldn't find a green kevlar style belt. Thanks in advance

    Need advice on Mott 48" Flail mowers PTO and powered units

    Hello- I am curious if I can connect with the flail mower sections members? Sorry if this is the wrong area to post. I searched for a long time to locate a 48" Mott flail to run behind my 1990 20hp Ford 1320 4x4. My ground is dry land field grass and I like the way the flail makes the...
