Do not set the blades at ground level or below. To
mow at this level may damage the machine as
well as the turf. The turf groomer is designed to
be a conditioner, not a vertical mower.
Textron Turf Care and Specialty Products does
not recommend setting the groomer blades more
than 1/16 in. (2 mm) below the reel cutting height.
