Averaged in time acoustic pressure level corrected byfrequency characteristic A.LAmax – maximum value corrected by frequency characteristic A of acoustic pressure level.LCpeak – peak level of acoustic pressure corrected by frequency characteristic C.3.2. Design and working principleThe front-rear flail mower (Fig. 2) is constructed of the suspension frame (1), which is used toconnect the mower to the three point hitch, at the front and at the rear of the tractor (RIO – at therear of the tractor).Drive from the vehicle PTO shaft is transmitted through jointed telescopic shaft (2) andintersection angle gear (6) onto driving shaft (3), and then the belt gear (5) is driven by the flailshaft (12), on which flail knives (13) are mounted.Clevis feet of the flail blades (cutting) functions as a safeguard of the operating elements fromoverloading and damage. During operation if the value of resistance force of the obstacle exceedsthe value of the centrifugal force of the blade, the blades tilts back and avoids the obstacle.The mowing height is regulated by adjusting the position of the copying shaft (11).Steel skids (14) protect the machine when passing through an obstacle.In VINO flail mower, cleaning plate (9) helps remove winding grass and dirt on the copyingshaft (11). Counter knives (10) keep the comminuted material for re-mulching. Please adjust theposition of counter knives according to mowing height – do not set below the ground level.
