Checking the Cylinder to
Bedknife Contact
Each day before operating, check the cutterhead to
bedknife contact, regardless if the quality of cut had
previously been acceptable. There must be light contact
across the full length of the cutterhead and the bedknife.
Cutterheads General
Information
This machine is designed to be used with MK3 8 inch
(20 cm) fixed or floating cutterheads.
It is essential that the relationship between the bottom
blades and the cutting cylinders are kept in good
adjustment and that cutting edges are kept sharp to
ensure good cutting performance, minimum power
consumption and prolonged life for the cutting edges,
refer to Cutterheads Maintenance (page 46).
MK3 Fixed cutterhead 8 inch (20 cm):
When the
mower is set up with fixed cutterheads the height of
cut is gauged by the rear roller and the cutterhead is
allowed to pivot laterally to follow ground contours.
This arrangement is recommended for general mowing
requirements (Figure 30).

Figure 30
MK3 Floating cutterhead 8 inch (20 cm):
When the
mower is set up with floating cutterheads the height
of cut is gauged by the front and rear rollers. The
cutterhead is allowed to pivot fore and aft as well as
laterally. This arrangement is recommended for high
quality grass areas and performs well where grass is
short and the ground undulations are severe (Figure 31).

Grass deflectors:
The rear grass deflectors must
always be correctly fitted. The deflectors should be
set as low as possible to deflect grass discharge to the
ground (Figure 32).
