REEL TO BED-KNIFE
SINGLE POINT ADJUSTMENT
Adjust the Reel to Bed-knife ‘contact’ to give an even cut
across the full length of the Bed-knife, as shown in Fig.20.
Fig.21
As wear takes place on the Reel Blades and the Bed-
Knife, the ‘single point adjuster’ provides a quick, easy,
and accurate method to make adjustments.
When noticeable wear is evident, the central adjusting
handle is turned CW, this pivots the Bed-knife, reducing
the clearance between the Reel Blades and Bed-knife.
Indents in the adjusting handle register with the ‘spring
arm’, allowing incremental adjustment.
Turn the adjusting handle one indent ‘click’ at a time, until
a ‘slight’ reel to bed-knife contact sound is heard.
CAUTION
Do not turn the adjusting handle more than advised,
resulting in hard metal to metal contact of Reel Blades and
Bed-knife that will cause rapid wear and damage.
Do not operate the mower if heavy contact is evident.

Spiral Reel Blades pass over the bed-knife in a scissor
action, the blades just brushing the bed-knife. When
cutting in dry conditions it may be necessary to adjust the
Reel to Bed-knife ‘slightly closer’ to maintain a high
quality cut.
