Adjusting the
Turf-Compensation Spring
No Parts Required
Procedure
The turf-compensation spring transfers weight from
the front to the rear roller
to reduce a wave pattern in the turf, also known as
marcelling or bobbing.
Important:
Make spring adjustments with the
cutting unit mounted to the traction unit, pointing
straight ahead and lowered to the ground.
1. Make sure that the hairpin cotter is installed in
the rear hole in the spring rod

2. Tighten the hex nuts on the front end of the
spring rod until the compressed length of the
spring is 12.7 cm (5 inches) for 5-inch cutting
units or 15.9 cm (6.25 inches) for 7-inch cutting
units (Figure 15).
Note:
When operating on rough terrain,
decrease the spring length by 12.7 mm (1/2
inch). This slightly decreases the ground
following.
(Figure 15). This helps
(Figure 15).
