Setting the Reel Speed

To achieve a consistent, high-quality cut and a uniform

the cover to the left of the seat). Adjust the reel speed
control as follows:
1. Select the height of cut at which the cutting units
are set.
2. Choose the desired ground speed best suites
conditions.
3. Use the table that follows to determine the
reel-speed setting for your 5-, 8-, 11-, or
14-blade cutting units; refer to
(page 49).
4. Adjust the reel speed by rotating the knob

with the number you determined in step 3.
Note:
You can increase or decrease the reel
speed to compensate for turf conditions.
