Adjusting Height of Cut
touches the front roller. Verify front roller
attitude at each end of the bedknife.
Note: At this time there should be a small gap
between the rear roller and gauge bar.
Checking or Adjusting Attitude
for Used Cutting Units
Note: As a starting point for adjusting cutting
unit attitude, the cutting unit may be set up
using the dimensions from Table 1. However,
because of wear on the bedknife and reel, the
following procedure must be used to ensure the
correct attitude setting.
1. Rotate the cutting unit backward to gain access
to the reel and bedknife.
2. Place an angle indicator, Toro Part No. 99-
3503, on the bedknife and record the bedknife
angle (Fig. 9).
3. Using a two-screw gauge bar, Toro Part No.
98-1852, set the first screw to the desired
height of cut.
4. Place the gauge bar across the front and rear
rollers. The first screw head must fit snugly
over edge of the bedknife, while the gauge bar
contacts the front roller (Fig. 10).
Note: The rear roller does not have to contact
the gauge bar.
5. Adjust the second screw to contact the
bedknife. Move the rear roller up, if needed.
6. Place an angle indicator on the gauge bar and
record the gauge bar angle (Fig. 10).
