Note: A more aggressive setting will increase grass
removal and provide a cleaner cut, but may cause increased
scalping and marking.
Note: A more aggressive setting may be required to
compensate for reel wear. (As the reel wears, the cutting
unit becomes less aggressive).
Leveling the Front Roller to the
Reel
1. Position the cutting unit on a flat, level surface.
2. Place a 1/4 inch or thicker plate under the reel blades
and against the front face of the bedknife.
Note: Be sure that the plate covers the full length of the
reel blades and three blades contact the plate.
3. Loosen the locknuts retaining the right front roller
bracket (Fig. 4).

4. While holding the reel securely on the plate and
maintaining pressure on the front roller, rotate the upper
right roller mounting bolt (Fig. 4). This mounting bolt
has an offset, which when rotated, acts as an eccentric
(cam) to raise or lower the roller. On the bolt head there
is an I.D. dot which denotes the offset of the bolt. The
dot indicates in which direction the right end of the
roller moves when the bolt is turned.
Note: If additional adjustment is required, replace one
screw on the left-hand bracket with another eccentric bolt,
Part No. 93-2573. Ensure that both front roller brackets are
in the same hole.
5. To verify if the roller is level, try inserting a piece of
paper under each end of the roller.
6. When the roller is level, tighten the nuts securely.
