Product Overview Specifications Tractors These cutting units will mount on the Reelmaster 5510 & 5610 Traction Units. Height of Cut Cutting height is adjusted on the front roller by two vertical screws and held by two locking cap screws Height Of Cut Range Standard bench height of cut range is .250 inch (3 mm) to 1.00 inch (25 mm). Bench height of cut range with the High Height of Cut Kit installed is 1.00 inch (25 mm) to 2.00 inches (51 mm).
Cutting Unit Accessories and Kits (see parts catalog for part numbers) however, effective height of cut is raised and quality of cut is reduced. Scrapers (Wiehle, Shoulder, Rear roller, Full Front Roller): Fixed scrapers for all optional rollers are available for reducing grass build up on rollers which can affect height of cut settings. Note: All accessories and kits are 1 per cutting unit unless otherwise specified.
Operation Note: Determine the left and right sides of the machine from the normal operating position. Adjustments Adjusting the Bedknife to the Reel Bedknife to reel adjustment is accomplished by loosening or tightening bedbar adjusting screws, located on top of mower. Figure 9 4. Check for light contact at other end of reel using paper and adjust as required. 5.
Paspalum, Zoysia) while cool season grasses (Bent, Bluegrass, Rye) may require normal to more aggressive setups. More aggressive setups cut more grass off by allowing the spinning reel to pull more grass up into the bedknife. 6. Re-secure roller bracket and spacers to underside of side plate mounting flanges with nuts previously removed. 7. Verify that bedknife to reel contact is correct. Tip mower to expose front and rear rollers and bedknife.

Adjusting the Height of Cut Note: For heights of cut greater than 1.00" the High Height of Cut Kit must be installed. 1. Loosen locknuts securing height-of-cut arms to cutting unit side plates (Figure 14). Figure 16 Figure 14 Important: When set properly, the rear and front rollers will contact the gauge bar and the screw will be snug against the bedknife. This ensures that the height-of-cut is identical at both ends of the bedknife. 5. Tighten nuts to secure adjustment. Do not overtighten nut.
adjustment procedure needed to deliver optimum mowing performance. The precise adjustment possible with the dual knob/bedbar design gives the necessary control to provide a continual self-sharpening action-thus maintaining sharp cutting edges, ensuring good quality-of-cut, and greatly reducing the need for routine back lapping. Daily Adjustments of Cutting Unit Prior to mowing each day, or as required, each cutting unit must be checked to verify proper bedknife-to-reel contact.
Maintenance Lubrication Each cutting unit has (6) grease fittings (Figure 19) that must be lubricated regularly with No. 2 General Purpose Lithium Base Grease. Figure 20 The lubrication points are front roller (2), rear roller (2) and reel bearing (2). 1. Bedknife adjusting knob Note: Lubricating cutting units immediately after washing helps purge water out of bearings and increases bearing life. 2.
Note: Reel bearings do not require preload. Over tightening reel bearing adjuster nut will damage reel bearings. 4. Retighten set screw securing bearing adjusting nut to bearing housing. Torque to 12-15 in-lb. Servicing the Bedbar Removing the Bedbar 1. Turn bedbar adjuster screws, counterclockwise, to back bedknife away from reel (Figure 23). Figure 25 1. Bedbar bolt 2. Nut 3.
