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)
by hand to check the sharpness of the
blades.
Check the sharpness at entire range (three
or four points) of the reel cutter (cutting
cylinder).
Using a piece of chalk, mark locations on the
blade that are sharp.
Shift only the reel rotation/stop switching
levers of the hydraulic motors in the mower
