Factor Possible Problem/Correction
6. Bedknife to reel adjustment. Check bedknife to reel contact daily. Bedknife must
have light contact all across the reel. No contact will
cause cutting edges to become dull. Excessive contact
accelerates wear; quality of cut may be adversely
affected.
Slightly dull cutting edges may be corrected by
backlapping. Excessively dull cutting edges must be
corrected by grinding the reel and bedknife.
7. Front roller position. Make sure front rollers on all cutting units are in the
same position.
8. Rear roller parallel to reel. Rear roller must be set so that it is parallel with the reel
before setting height–of–cut.
9. Height–of–cut. Make sure all cutting units are set at the same
height–of–cut. Set units as specified in the Cutting Unit
Operator’s Manual.
10. Bedbar stability. Check bedbar end bushings, adjuster pivot bushings,
and nylon flanged bushings for wear or damage.
Check bedbar adjustment knob to make sure detent
holds adjustment.
11. Number of reel blades. Use cutting unit model with the correct number of
blades for clip frequency and optimum quality of cut
range (see Specifications).
12. Cutting unit alignment and ground following. Check lift arms and cutting unit pivot linkages for wear,
damage, binding, or bent pivot pins.
13. Roller condition. All rollers should rotate freely. Make sure roller
bearings are properly lubricated. Replace bearings if
worn or damaged.
