6.3 Adjusting the bottom blade - setting “on cut”
The bottom blade is correctly adjusted when the cutting cylinder lightly brushes the
bottom blade as the cylinder is turned. Contact should be made across the full width
of the bottom blade.
The blades act like a pair of scissors, as a test correctly adjusted blades will cleanly
cut a piece of good quality writing paper across the width of the blade. The bottom
blade should be adjusted if the grass is not cut cleanly and evenly.
WARNING – Blades are sharp always wear gloves
