Blades And Hammer Kits

The Giraffona Flail Mower comes standard with hammer flails and as an option with fish tail flails, the self sharpening hammer flail leaves a clean and level cut and lifts and mulches while cutting. The fish tail flail is used for cutting dense tougher material. The hammers and blades bolt onto the rotor which is electronically balanced to minimise machine vibration and stresses on the bearings.
