4. Open the latches on the suspension-arm bar of
the cutting unit you are removing (
Figure 32 ).
5. Disconnect the latches from the cutting-unit bar.
6. Roll the cutting unit out from under the
suspension arm.
7. Repeat steps 2 through 6 for the other cutting
units as required.
Setting the Reel Speed
To achieve a consistent, high quality–of–cut and a
uniform after cut appearance, it is important that the
reel speed control (located on the manifold block
under the cover to the left of the seat) be correctly set.
Adjust the reel speed control as follows:
1. Select the height-of-cut at which the cutting units
are set.
2. Choose the desired ground speed best suited
for conditions.
3. Using the appropriate graph (See Figure 37 ) for
5, 8, 11, or 14 blade cutting units, determine the
proper reel speed setting.

4. To set the reel speed, rotate the knob ( Figure
38 ) until the indicator arrows are in line with the
number designating desired setting.

Note:
You can increase or decrease the reel
speed to compensate for turf conditions.
Mowing with the Machine
Note:
Before mowing greens with the machine,
find a clear area and practice starting and stopping,
raising and lowering the cutting units, turning, etc.
This training period will be beneficial to the operator in
gaining confidence in the performance of the machine.
Note:
Before mowing, inspect the green for debris,
remove the flag from the cup, and determine the
best direction to mow. Base the direction to mow on
the previous mowing direction. Always mow in an
alternate pattern from the previous mowing so that
the grass blades will be less apt to lay down and
therefore be difficult to trap between the reel blades
and bedknife.
1. Approach the green with the shift selector in the
No. 1 position. Start on one edge of the green
so that the ribbon procedure of cutting may be
used.
Note:
This holds compaction to a minimum and
leaves a neat, attractive pattern on the greens.
2. Actuate the mow pedal as the front edge of the
grass baskets cross the outer edge of the green.
Note:
This procedure drops the cutting units to
the turf and starts the reels.
Important:
Familiarize yourself with the fact
that the No. 1 cutting unit reel is delayed and
therefore, you should practice to try to gain
the required timing necessary to minimize
the cleanup mowing operation.
