12 Reel Mowers
Toro University Technical Training
Clip is the forward distance traveled between successive blade contacts at one shear point.
This is viewed as a single contact point on the bedknife.
As the reel travels forward it pushes the grass in front of it, at the same time the reel blade is gathering the
grass it as it moves toward the bedknife.
The opposing forces working on the grass, bunch the grass together at the shear point creating a triangle.
By following the blade path through two “clips” as
the machine moves forward we can illustrate the
actual process of cutting grass. The bedknife
pushes grass toward the shear point, while the reel
blade gathers it in front.
