MOWER BLADE ADJUSTMENT
• The blades have been preadjusted before leaving the factory.
• Misalignment can occur resulting in blades that are too loose or too tight. If this happens, you will notice a rough,
uneven cut or a hard pushing mower.
• All adjustments are made from the rear of the mower (opposite from the bar with the logo decal.) Each end of the cut-
ting bar can be adjusted separately.
• As you follow the instructions below, refer to Figure 1 for more information.
• The cutting bar blade (located under the reel) pivots. The front screws move the cutter bar away from the blades, while
the rear screws move the cutting bar toward the blades.
• Adjusting the screws is a very sensitive procedure. 1/16th of a turn is considered a major adjustment.
• Before tightening one adjusting screw, be sure to loosen the opposing screw an equal amount.
LOOSENING THE BLADES
• The cutter bar blade must be moved further from the cutting reel.
• Loosen both back screws equally by turning them counter-clockwise.
• Tighten both front screws equally by turning them clockwise.
TIGHTENING THE BLADES
• The cutter bar must be moved closer to the cutting reel.
• Loosen both front screws equally by turning them counter-clockwise.
• Tighten both back screws equally by turning them clockwise.
CHECKING ADJUSTMENTS
• Turn mower upside down.
• Insert a piece of paper (i.e., writing or newspaper) between the cutter bar and the reel blades, and carefully turn the reel
blades by hand.
* All blades should slice the paper evenly the entire length of the cutter bar while the reel turns smoothly.
• if the mower has an uneven cut, an adjustment should be made to the appropriate side of the blades to attain an even
cutting action.
