Adjust Height−Of−Cut; Adjust Rear Roller Scraper - Toro Greensmaster 3250-D 04383 Service Manual

Adjust Height−of−Cut
Note: Cutting units will deliver differing effective
height−of−cuts depending on their configuration. In fact,
effective cutting height may be influenced by any of the
following factors: turf conditions, roller profiles, cutting
unit attitude, cutting unit accessories, weight of cutting
units, and bedknife profile. Therefore benchsetting a
cutting unit does not equal the effective (actual) height−
of−cut you achieve. You need to determine how to adjust
your cutter on the bench to achieve a comparable
height−of−cut to a cutting unit of a different configura-
tion, model, or brand.
1. If the cutting unit is not already removed from the
machine, remove reel motor from the cutting unit and
cutting unit from lift arm (see Cutting Unit Removal and
Installation).
2. Verify that front roller is level and bedknife to reel
contact is correct (see Adjust Bedknife to Reel, and see
Adjust and Level Front Roller to Reel).
3. Turn cutting unit over (90_) and rest it on the rear
roller and top rear tabs. Loosen locknuts on the caps-
crews retaining the rear roller brackets.
4. On gauge bar (Part no. 13−8199), set head of screw
to desired height−of−cut. This measurement is from bar
face to underside of screw head.

Adjust Rear Roller Scraper

1. Park machine on a clean and level surface, lower
cutting units, stop engine, engage parking brake, and
remove key from the ignition switch.
2. Loosen flange nuts securing both bracket assem-
blies to the hex head screws on each roller bracket.
3. Adjust flange nuts up or down until bottom edge of
scraper is the same height as the top edge of the cutting
unit bedknife at each end or the same as the height−of−
cut setting.
Note: If scraper is not adjusted correctly it will not
properly clean roller, will ruffle the grass or leave large
clumps on the grass.
4. Move scraper in or out to ensure the edge is flush
with the full length of the roller. Tighten top flange nuts
to secure the adjustment.
IMPORTANT: Thoroughly wash cutting unit after
each use. Pull scraper away from the roller when
washing. Failure to follow this practice may result in
pitting of the roller.
