With the adjustment nut, adjust the engagement
between the reel cutter (cutting cylinder) and the
bed knife (bottom blade) so that newspaper (two
to three sheets) will be cut by the edge of both
blades when the blades in their entirety come
slightly into contact with each other.
Insert two or three strips of newspaper into the
space between the reel cutter (cutting cylinder)
and the bed knife (bottom blade) at an angle of
90 degrees. Then, rotate the reel cutter (cutting
cylinder) counter-clockwise (when you face the
mower unit from the left) to check the sharpness
of the blades.
Check the sharpness of the entire range (three
or four points from left edge to right) of the reel
cutter (cutting cylinder).
If a gap is created between edges:
Loosen the cutter adjustment nut to apply
more contact pressure between the reel
cutter (cutting cylinder) and the bed knife
(bottom blade).
If the reel cutter (cutting cylinder) is too tight
to turn:
Tighten the cutter adjustment nut to reduce
the contact pressure between the reel cutter
(cutting cylinder) and the bed knife (bottom
blade).
If the blades still cannot cut well:
Perform back lapping of the reel cutter
(cutting cylinder).
