    General Adjustments SETTING FOR HEIGHT OF CUT Always stop the engine before adjusting the height of cut. Failure to do this may result in serious injury. The length of grass after cutting and the depth of scarification / dethatching / brushing, depends on the setting of the front roller in relation to the main frame of the machine.
  • Page 11 General Adjustments SETTING THE CYLINDER Item 1 To set: • Slacken 2-off lock nuts and bolts (Item 1) [19mm spanner] • Rotate bolt (Item 2) clockwise to bring the blade towards the cylinder. Item 2 • Check the setting using thin paper along the length of the cylinder. • Adjust until it cuts along the whole length. • When set, tighten the lock nut. • Recheck adjustment. • Do not set the cylinder hard to the bottom blade. This will cause excessive wear of both components and increase fuel consumption. • Recheck Adjustment. DO NOT SET THE CYLINDER HARD TO THE BOTTOM BLADE.
