SETTING HEIGHT OF CUT AND
LEVELING THE REAR ROLLER

(Floating Cutting Units)

Note: 

For best results, perform adjustments on the

cutting units when they are removed from traction unit.

1.  Position the cutting unit on a flat level table or

board.

2.  Slightly loosen the nut securing each roller bracket

to the angle bracket.

3.  Adjust the support capscrew to achieve 25 mm ±2

mm dimension between the height-of-cut support
and the front roller bracket (2 places).

4.  Adjust the support capscrew to achieve 16 mm +2

mm dimension between the height-of-cut support
and the rear roller bracket (2 places).

5. Remove the hairpin cotters securing the rear height-

of-cut pins and install them in the 1/2" setting as

shown on the height-of-cut plate.

6.  Remove the hairpin cotters securing the front

height-of-cut pins and install them in the 6 mm
setting as shown on height-of-cut plate to allow
clearance between the roller and table.

7.  Position a 2 cm or thicker bar under the reel blades

and against the front face of the bedknife. Make
sure the bar covers the full length of the reel blades.

8.  Check that the rear roller is level by inserting a

piece of paper under each end of the roller.

9.  Level the roller by adjusting the appropriate support

capscrew on the rear roller supports until the roller
is parallel and the entire length of the roller touches
the table.

10.  When the roller is level, adjust both rollers to the

desired height-of-cut pins. Tighten the nuts securing
the roller brackets.

11.  Verify that the rollers are level and the bedknife is

parallel to the surface.
