lapping compound off the cutting units. Adjust
cutting unit reel to bedknife as needed. Adjust
the cutting unit reel speed to the desired mowing
setting.
Important:
If the backlap switch is
not returned to the O
backlapping, the cutting units will not raise
or function properly.
Note:
For a better cutting edge, run a file across
the front face of the bedknife after lapping. This
removes any burrs or rough edges that may
have built up on the cutting edge.
