Scalping
NOTE: Arrow indicates direction of travel.
Scalping is a condition in which areas of grass are cut
noticeably shorter than the surrounding areas, resulting in
a light green or even brown patch. This is usually caused
by an excessively low height-of-cut (HOC) setting and/or
uneven turf.

Maintenance Manual.”)

Operation, and Maintenance Manual.”)
Turf too uneven for the mower to follow.
