FOC (High/Low Clip) Selector Lever

Caution

The lever should be operated while the engine
rotation is stopped, and adjusted to the
position suitable for your work.

The FOC (High/Low Clip) selector lever is in
the left frame side.
There are three changeover positions.
When the lever is shifted to "High clip," the reel
cutter (cutting cylinder) rotates faster, and the
clip pitch (cutting interval) becomes shorter.
This is suitable for the work in good turf
condition.
When the lever is shifted to "Low clip," the reel
cutter (cutting cylinder) rotates slower
compared to" High clip " and the clip pitch
becomes longer.
This is suitable for the work when the turf
condition is not so good.
When the lever is shifted to "Stop," the drive
transmission for the reel rotation gear is
disengaged.

Air Adjusting Plate

Caution

The air adjusting plate should be operated
while the engine rotation is stopped, and
adjusted to the position suitable for your work.

The air adjusting plate is attached on the reel
cover.
The dispersing angle of clippings can be
adjusted by changing the position of the air
adjusting plate.
Adjust it according to the grass condition and
the reel rotation (high/low speed).
The air adjusting plate can be moved closer to
the reel cutter when the grass condition is

dry

 or the reel rotation is "high speed."

The air adjusting plate can be moved away
from the reel cutter when the grass condition is
"wet" or the reel rotation is "low speed."
