I could see how tall grass could get pulled into that gap.
leonz - I have an iMatch quick hitch on it and flail only has one hole. It's in the float when mowing and raise front end of flail in higher stuff. Real high and thick stuff I had to lift mower and roller up about 4 inches.
Grass wrapping around rotor and getting warm is my concern. I'm guessing that's from grass too high. Doesn't seem to wrap in lower thin stuff. 1st pic is where its wrapping..after I cleaned it out.

Do I have the best blades for cutting grass shown in 2nd pic? Wasn't sure if side slicers would be better Grass only. Very little brush at field edges. Have a brush hog for that stuff sitting nearby for that.

Question on Caroni TL1500c blades.
I haven't posted here in years. Find I am past due for replacing the blades on my nearly ten year old mower. Including tax and shipping new ones are now close to ten dollars each from Agri-Supply (#49410- type A&F)-- ouch. But their catalog says these are reversible and my original ones have not been reversed. However in looking at the ones that are on the mower they don't 'look' reversible-- the reverse side does not have an edge like the current front side.
Can anyone confirm whether these will cut decently if I reverse them? Would sure save a bunch of dollars if I can.
Also try hardhitter.com They carry flails for my Loftness 72 where flailmaster does not so they may have something for youI don't know anything about the Caroni blades, but you can reach out to Flailmaster to see if they have any blades that would fit your mower. They will be significantly less expensive than OEM. If you can post a picture of what you currently have it would help us help you.
I got mine from these folks just north of knoxville. See some on tractor house alsoAnyone have a source for a Ironcraft (formally Titan Implement) FL-165 flail? I am in the market for this model but can't locate one to buy at the moment.
I called them and like everyone else they don't have one in stock and will be 6-8 weeks out. I appreciate your help anyways!I got mine from these folks just north of knoxville. See some on tractor house alsoView attachment 759530
I replaced all my Caroni Y blades and hardware recently. I found FlailMaster.com to be excellent to work with and far less expensive at about $2 a blade. Best to call them. I got the bolts and nylock nuts from Fastenal. Tip, cut those bolts off. Probably not salvageable anyway.Question on Caroni TL1500c blades.
