Description

GeoTech Pro KFM 170M Tractor Flail Mower

The GeoTech PRO KFM 170M tractor-mounted flail mower is an agricultural machine designed for grass shredding, light prunings and small shrubs. Thanks to its medium-lightweight construction, it is suitable for hobbyist and semi-professional use. The reinforced chassis and compact design ensure durability and manoeuvrability during green area maintenance operations.

The mulcher is equipped with manual lateral adjustment, allowing it to adapt to different working conditions. The three-belt drive system ensures efficient power transmission from the tractor to the rotor shaft, guaranteeing reliable performance. The 170 cm working width allows large surfaces to be covered in a short time, improving operational efficiency.

The adjustable rear roller allows the cutting height to be set, adapting the shredding to the specific needs of the ground. Furthermore, the side skids protect the structure and improve stability during use. The Category 1 three-point hitch system ensures compatibility with most small- and medium-power tractors.

Key features:

Manual lateral adjustment: allows positioning in 4 different positions to adapt to different working requirements.
3-belt drive: ensures efficient and durable power transmission.
170 cm working width: ensures optimal coverage for green space maintenance
Adjustable rear roller: allows the cutting height to be adapted to ground conditions.
Category 1 three-point hitch: compatible with small and medium-sized tractors.

Cutting Tools: Hammer Flails

Nr. of hammer flails on standard equipment: 28

Flails are fixed by means of a sturdy, bolt made of hardened steel.

Focus on the cutting hammers, mounted on the rotating roller.

It finely shreds grass, and woody residues while also providing a rolling effect on the turf. The combination of a high-speed rotor and numerous hammer flails ensures excellent shredding quality and helps minimise the formation of uneven wave patterns on the ground surface.

Focus on the under-deck counter-blade row.

Side Belt Transmission and Gearbox

Gearbox in oil bath. The housing is made of cast iron, while the internal gears are made of hardened steel. Equipped with lubricated extension.

This machine is equipped with a freewheel device (or additional joint) built in the gearbox: this ensures a long service life of all the moving parts of the machine, preventing the kickback that would be caused by changing from 540 rpm to 0 rpm and allowing the rotor to turn freely until it stops.

3-belt side transmission (most tractor-mounted mowers in this weight category are equipped with normal 2-belt transmission).

Focus on the side grease nipple on the transmission side, placed in a convenient position, accessible through the proper opening.

The gearbox of this machine can contain no more than 1L of lubricating oil.

Please carefully read the instructions manual before starting the unit.

Standard 1 3/8” z6 PTO (suitable for all current and recently manufactured tractors): if you own a particularly old tractor, make sure that it is equipped with the same PTO and with standard clockwise rotation (right-side).

Hydraulic side shift and 3 points hitch

Equipped with manual side shift with 4 positions.

Recommendations for Use - Tractor-mounted Fixed Flail Mowers

To ensure correct operation, a longer service life and safe working conditions, it is essential to use the tractor-mounted flail mower in accordance with the instructions set out in the user manual and the machine’s technical specifications. Incorrect use may result in premature wear of components, reduced performance or damage not covered by the warranty.

Before starting work, always check that the tractor is compatible with the flail mower by verifying the required power, hitch type and intended operating conditions. Correct matching of the machine and the tractor ensures optimum performance and prevents the transmission from being overloaded.

Use the flail mower exclusively on suitable surfaces: the machine is designed for grass shredding, wild vegetation, plant residues and materials compatible with the machine’s category. Avoid contact with unintended objects such as stones, metal, plastic or other foreign bodies.
Adjust the working height correctly: maintaining an adequate distance from the ground reduces the impact on the cutting units and limits excessive stress on the machine’s structure.
Do not operate the machine where there are hidden obstacles or unsuitable ground conditions: ditches, stumps, exposed roots, loose stones or uneven ground can cause sudden impacts and damage to the cutting parts or transmission components.
Do not use the flail mower for operations other than shredding: the machine must not be used for earthmoving, ground levelling or other applications not specified by the manufacturer.
Always adjust the forward speed to suit the working conditions: excessive speed can reduce the quality of the shredding, increase vibrations and subject the machine to stresses greater than those for which it was designed.
Avoid using the machine on excessively damp material: wet grass or particularly damp vegetation can cause material to build up inside the machine, reducing its efficiency.
Do not force the tractor forward: if the rotor slows down, vibrations increase or cutting capacity decreases, speed must be reduced and the work adapted to the conditions of the ground and vegetation.
Check the condition of the cutting components regularly: worn, damaged or missing blades, hammers or other cutting elements can compromise the machine’s operation and increase vibrations during use.
Carry out periodic checks and routine maintenance: check that components are correctly tightened, inspect the condition of the transmission components and ensure the machine is generally clean to maintain its efficiency and safety.

Use of the power take-off (PTO):

The tractor’s power take-off (PTO ) must be used in accordance with the rotational speed specified by the flail mower manufacturer. An incorrect rotational speed may compromise the machine’s operation, causing overheating, accelerated wear or excessive stress on mechanical components.

When attaching and detaching the flail mower, the power take-off must always be disengaged and the tractor switched off. It is also necessary to check that the PTO shaft is correctly installed and has sufficient clearance to move freely while working.
