Adjusting Bedknife Parallel to Reel 5. Hold one roller bracket stationary and use other bracket as a wrench to loosen or tighten bearing clearance to allow roller to rotate freely and to eliminate bearing end play. 1. A 3/4 in. (19 mm) wrench will be needed to rotate bedknife adjustment knob. Each notch on the knob will move the bedknife .0005 inches (.013mm) (Fig. 3). Make sure reel contact is removed by rotating bedknife adjustment knob counterclockwise.
Setting Height of Cut and Leveling Rear Roller 6. Loosen the two locknuts securing the bedbar adjuster to the cutting unit side plate (Fig. 5). 1. Position cutting unit on a surface plate. 2. Adjust support capscrew to achieve 1 in. ± 1/16 (25mm ± 1.5mm) dimension between height-of-cut support and front roller bracket (2 places) (Fig. 8). 3 5/8 in. 1 2 2 4 3 Figure 5 1. Bedbar adjuster 2.

6. Place cutting unit on a flat surface and verify that front and rear rollers contact the surface. Alternately push downward on opposite corners of the cutting unit. The amount of clearance allowable under any roller end depends on the turf conditions (sensitivity to lack of parallelism). Generally, .010 to .020 in. (.25 to .50mm) will provide acceptable after cut appearance. If clearance under any roller end is excessive, repeat the leveling of front and rear rollers. 7.
Reposition Rear Roller Changing Height-of-Cut 1. On gauge bar, set head of screw to desired height-of-cut. This measurement is from bar face to underside of screw head. Gauge Bar (Part No. 98–1852) may be obtained from your local Toro Distributor. This procedure describes how to change the height-of-cut after a cutting unit has been set up as described in Setup, page 4. The height-of-cut can be changed with the cutting units on or off the traction unit. 2.
Checking/Adjusting the Cutting Unit Attitude Cutting Unit Attitude Cutting unit attitude refers to the position of the cutting edge of the bedknife behind the center line of the reel (bottom–dead–center) (Fig. 11). This can be varied by changing the position of the front and rear rollers at a given height-of-cut. For setting consistent cutting unit attitude, Toro strongly recommends using a two-screw gauge bar, Toro part no. 98-1852 (Fig. 12).
3. Place the gauge bar across the front and rear rollers. The first screw head needs to fit snugly over the edge of the bedknife while the gauge bar contacts the rollers (Fig. 14). 4. Adjust the second screw to contact the bedknife. 5. Place an angle indicator on the gauge bar and record the gauge bar angle (Fig. 14). 6. Bedknife Angle (step 1) – Gauge Bar Angle (step 5) = Cutting Unit Attitude (degrees) 3 7.
Operation 2. Slowly rotate reel in reverse direction listening for reel-to-bedknife contact. If no contact is evident, turn bedknife adjusting knob clockwise, one click at a time, until light contact is felt and heard. Note: Determine the left and right sides of the machine from the normal operating position. 3. If excessive contact is felt, turn bedknife adjusting knob counterclockwise, one click at a time until no contact is evident.
Lubrication Each cutting unit has 6 grease fittings (with optional front roller installed) that must be lubricated regularly with No. 2 General Purpose Lithium Base Grease. The grease fitting locations and quantities are: Bedknife adjuster (2), every 50 hours (Fig. 15); Reel bearings (2) and front and rear rollers (2 ea.) (Fig. 16). Note: Lubricate only one reel bearing grease fitting on each end of cutting unit.
SPA (Single Point Adjustment) Spring Adjustment Backlapping Danger If single point adjustment assembly (Fig. 17) is removed for servicing, make sure spring is compressed, between washers, to a length of .86” (22 mm). This adjustment is attained by tightening nut on SPA knob shaft. While backlapping, reels may stall and then not restart. Contact with the reel blades can cause personal injury or death. Note: SPA assembly has left-handed threads.
