Benefits & Uses — Why Farmers Need It
- Efficient Residue Management
After harvest, fields are often littered with stalks, stems, stubble, and crop residue. The Flail Mulcher (With Door) | 165 cm | Alpha S 1650 processes these materials quickly into smaller, manageable pieces, leaving a uniform mulch cover. This aids faster decomposition, returns organic matter to the soil, and improves soil fertility. - Weed and Brush Control
Flail Mulcher (With Door) | 165 cm | Alpha S 1650 is used for land infested with weeds, brush, young saplings, and undergrowth, this mulcher handles vegetation up to certain diameters (e.g, 30–50 mm, depending on flail type). It is ideal for maintaining boundaries, farm tracks, and fallow land. - Pasture Renovation & Maintenance
Livestock farmers can use the Flail Mulcher (With Door) | 165 cm | Alpha S 1650 to cut old grass, thatch, and weeds in pastures, encouraging new growth and better grazing quality. - Soil Protection & Moisture Retention
By mulching instead of burning, the Flail Mulcher (With Door) | 165 cm | Alpha S 1650 helps protect soils from erosion, preserve moisture, reduce runoff, and enhance soil structure. - Time & Labor Savings
Compared to manual cutting or less efficient machines, a flail mulcher of this scale saves significant time and labor, allowing farmers to cover large areas in a single pass. - Flexibility Across Crops & Regions
Whether on maize farms, cassava fields, sugarcane stubble, or agroforestry sites, the Flail Mulcher (With Door) | 165 cm | Alpha S 1650 adapts to different landscapes and residue types.
Farmer Needs Suited:
- Medium to large-scale farmers seeking mechanized residue control
- Mixed-cropping farmers need post-harvest cleanup
- Pasture managers and livestock farmers
- Agroforestry & plantation owners maintaining the undergrowth
- Contractors offering land maintenance services in rural areas
Application & Operating Instructions
Use the following steps to operate your Flail Mulcher (With Door) | 165 cm | Alpha S 1650 safely and effectively:
- Inspect Machine & Tractor Fit
- Confirm your tractor’s horsepower rating suits the mulcher (e.g. 70–120 hp, depending on model).
- Check three-point linkage compatibility (Cat. 2 or Cat. 3).
- Ensure the PTO shaft is rated for 540 rpm and has a safety clutch or overrunning device.
- Before Starting
- Inspect flail blades for sharpness and balance.
- Tighten all bolts, guards, and panels.
- Grease all lubrication points (bearings, pivot points) per the manual.
- Adjust skid shoes and rear roller (if fitted) to the desired height (usually 3–5 cm above ground).
- Close the door (if hydraulic or sliding) until locked.
- Mounting & Setup
- Attach the mulcher to the tractor three-point linkage.
- Align the PTO shaft and engage securely.
- Raise the implement to safe transport height, avoiding contact with the ground.
- Operating
- Engage PTO at idle speed, then gradually increase to full working speed (540 rpm recommended).
- Begin forward pass at the recommended speed (5–8 km/h).
- Overlap passes slightly to ensure complete coverage.
- If vegetation is dense, reduce forward speed or use a second pass.
- Use the door/sliding panel to control discharge and prevent debris from flinging toward the tractor or operator.
- Stopping & Maintenance During Work
- Disengage tractor PTO before reversing.
- Stop the engine and wait for the rotor to stop fully before performing any inspection or cleaning.
- Clear debris under the machine using tools (not by hand).
- Check bolts and blade tightness periodically.
- After Work / Storage
- Clean mud, dust, and debris from the machine.
- Lubricate all parts.
- Store in a dry, covered barn or shed.
- If long idle periods, coat metal surfaces with light oil to prevent rust.

Safety & Storage Information
Safety Guidelines
- Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment when using Flail Mulcher (With Door) | 165 cm | Alpha S 1650
- Never approach the machine or remove guards while the rotor is still spinning.
- Do not allow people or animals within the danger zone (commonly 10 m) during operation due to debris throw.
- Keep bystanders behind the tractor and away from the discharge area.
- Use the door mechanism to limit projectile distance.
- Do not operate on steep slopes (> 15°) or dangerously uneven ground without proper precautions.
- Ensure all shields and guards are in place before starting.
- Before unblocking, turn off the PTO, shut down the tractor engine, and wait until the rotor completely stops.
- Do not overload the machine—excessive load may damage the drives, rotor, and gearbox.
Storage & Care
- Clean off mud, plant debris, and moisture after every use.
- Lubricate pivot joints, bearings, and latch mechanisms.
- If storing for extended periods, apply a light film of oil or rust inhibitor on exposed steel.
- Store in a dry, sheltered location (shed or covered structure).
- If possible, elevate the Flail Mulcher (With Door) | 165 cm | Alpha S 1650 off the ground to avoid water exposure.
- Check periodically during the off-season to ensure no rodents, insects, or water damage.
Local Considerations & Cost of Ownership
- Fuel and tractor compatibility: In Nigeria, many farmers use 80–120 hp tractors. Confirm matching to avoid under- or over-sizing.
- Spare parts logistics: We maintain parts depots in major agricultural hubs (e.g. Ibadan, Kano, Kaduna) to reduce downtime.
- Resale value: With solid construction and maintenance, you retain value in local markets.
- Return on investment: Compare the cost of labor and manual clearing vs mechanized mulching—many farmers recover cost within a few seasons via improved soil health and labor savings.
