[Farmall] flail mower

[Barney Van De Weert]

Try your local Rhino Dealer and see if he can get you the parts- we sell the same one as a Rhino. Just not all models.

By the way, I also have a Mott 5' pull-behind flail mower. It doesn't
get much use these days, but when I do use it, it works very well.

The biggest issue is that it is not easy/convenient to adjust the height
of the cut. I have been thinking about replacing the crank/screw height
arrangement with a remote hydraulic cylinder to use it with my Farmall 
340, but I never got a round tuit.
