Possible Problem/Correction
"Effective" or actual height–of–cut depends on the
mower weight and turf conditions. Effective
height–of–cut will be different than the bench set
height–of–cut.
If the bedknife is too thick for effective height–of–cut,
poor quality of cut will result.
Install and/or adjust roller scrapers if grass clippings
build up on the rollers. Set clearance between the
scraper and roller at 1/32 inch (0.8 mm).
Make sure bedbar pivot bolts are securely seated.
Check condition of the bushings in the side plates.
See Bedbar in Service and Repairs section.
Use correct number of blades for clip frequency and
optimum height–of–cut range.
Make sure rollers rotate freely. Grease roller when
needed, or repair bearings as necessary.
See Roller Bearing Replacement in Service and
Repairs section.
Check maximum governed engine speed. Adjust
engine to specifications if necessary. The drive belts
may be loose or worn. Check the condition of the belts
and adjust or replace as necessary.
See Adjustments section in Chapter 3 – Engine and
Chapter 4 – Traction and Reel Drive System. Also, see
