New Holland Disc Mower 109M Duradisc: Broken Gear part 2

How old is this cutter?

[@WiseoldAl]

It broke the 2nd season I used it. The hubs were turned way too tight. I believe torque should be 130 foot pounds. Hubs were torqued at 190 if I recall. Thus it should have slipped as designed. I think it's 2018 I think

We have 4 Krone easy cut 320s going on 7 years which utilizes a completely different module drive system in a completely enclosed welded, permentaly lubricated bar.... The power is transmitted down the rear of the bar to each turtle.... not from one to the next in line....
