INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Install flail bar strap (Ref 4) to center of mounting bar (Ref 3) with chain on top of flail bar strap and mount-
ing bar bent away from you. Apply a light coat of lubricant to overall length of mounting bar.
2. Install one rasp flail (Ref 16) with knobby side down adjacent to sides of flail bar strap. Now install a flat
washer (Ref 2) so it sits adjacent with the outside of the rasp flail. Continue to install flails with knobby
sides down with washers between until you have 16 flails and washers on each side of bar strap. Force all
flails tightly toward bar strap.
3. After all 32 flails have been installed, place one spacer (Ref 1) to each end of mounting bar adjacent to
washer.
4. Install leveler bar (Ref 9) to mounting bar, with curved leveler bar resting on top on the smooth sides of
flails. If all flails and washers do not fit snugly at this time, remove leveler bar and install enough machine
bushings to ensure a snug fit. Then reinstall leveler bar.
5. Lay the frame (Ref 6) on the floor or bench with welded tabs facing up. Install ends of assembled mounting
bar, with knobby sides of flails up, into welded tabs on each end of frame and secure with 1 /

x 1 cotter
pin.
6. Install flail bar strap (Ref 4) to center tab on frame with 3 /
8
-16 x 1 bolt and 3 /
8
-16 center lock nut. Loose fit
is required. Do not over tighten.
7. Flip assembly over so knobby sides of flails are now facing down. Install hitch to frame with clevis pin (Ref
3) and cotter pin (Ref 24). The hitch should be attached to the frame as shown.
8. Install bar strap chain over welded pin on frame. Install leveler bar chain on to pin and secure in place with
bridge pin. Use last bridge pin and clevis pin to hitch field finisher to your machine.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Running attachment with all flails down, flat on the surface, will provide a leveling function. Running attachment
partially raised and flails at a 20° - 40° angle in relation to the level surface, will provide a finishing function. The
flails increase down pressure for desired finish. Drive in wide circular patterns and increase or decrease ground
speed to achieve desired finish.
