FH-EFGC125: 20 hammers; 2 belts in main table and manual. FH-EFGC155: 24 hammers; 3 belts in main table and manual.
Service quantities differ.125’s Additional information contradicts installed blades; 155’s Additional information says 2 belts. Confirm the actual order before buying spare sets.
The broader machine has higher figures in both sources, but neither provides a verified complete assembly. Use a confirmed delivered load for lift and unloading plans.
The current product details explicitly label the range as PTO horsepower. The currently linked manual is Revision 12-12-17 despite its /2025/05/ upload path: p 23 has a minimum-HP footnote that changes basis to engine horsepower for hydrostatic tractors, while p 16 states an 80 PTO hp ceiling. These sources do not establish one reconciled limit for the delivered machine.
125 blade and 155 belt/driveline information conflict internally.
Both page/manual weight pairs conflict.
Manual p 23 documents two hitch mounting positions; p 20 instead describes side-to-side adjustment by a handle. Confirm which mechanism and reference dimensions apply to the delivered fixed model. No powered adjustment is assumed.
Current official product pages and manufacturer-linked manuals were checked November 7, 2026. The EFGC manual is Revision 12-12-17 despite its later upload directory. These are published-specification comparisons, not field tests or confirmed tractor pairings.
