10.1 Adjusting the bottom blade
WARNING -
Always wear gloves and disable the battery pack when
handling the cylinder. Do not touch rotating blades.
•
Remove the battery isolation key, tilt the mower backwards.
•
Hold a thin piece of paper between the edge of the bottom blade and the
cutting cylinder
•
Turn the cutting cylinder slowly by hand.
•
If the blade is set properly the paper should cut cleanly along the full length of
the cylinder. If it does not then proceed as described on the next page.
•
Locate the two bottom blade adjusters (1 in Figure 1).
•
The adjusters alter the gap between the bottom blade and the cutting
cylinder. Rotate the adjusters clockwise to increase the gap. Rotate the
adjusters anti-clockwise to decrease the gap. See Figure 2 for clarity.
•
Adjust the clearance between the bottom blade and the cutting cylinder so
that the paper is cleanly cut at all points across the blade. Frequently use the
paper to test between each adjustment.
