Leveling the Core Processor
1.
Before leveling the core processor, make sure that
the pickup brush and the rear roller height are
adjusted to the correct height of cut (
).
If the core processor is equipped with a new brush,
reference the Rear Roller Adjustment Table to set the
rear roller for proper grass height-of-cut.
Note:
At the factory the rear roller is set at 3 mm (1/8
inch) brush clearance from the ground.

Note:
The table has made accommodations for 2.5
cm (1 inch) of brush wear. Replace the brush if worn
more than 2.5 cm (1 inch).
2.
Adjust the roller as follows:
A.
Check the brush height on a hard surface so you
can determine which direction you may have to
adjust the rear roller.
B.
Loosen the three bolts on each roller side plate.
C.
Loosen the center nut so the adjustment key can
be pulled out.
D.
Hold rear roller up, pull adjustment key out, and
move roller to desired height. Both sides must
be at the same height.
Note:
Each notch is 6 mm (1/4 inch) of
adjustment.
E.
After rear roller is adjusted check the core
processor frame to be sure it is parallel to the
ground.
F.
Recheck brush height.
Note:
You may have to adjust the rear roller if
you can not get the main frame parallel to the
ground.
