Adjusting the bottom blade - setting “on cut”
For grass cutting cylinder cartridges only.
The bottom blade is correctly adjusted when the cutting cylinder lightly brushes the bottom blade as
the cylinder is turned. Contact should be made across the full width of the bottom blade.
The blades act like a pair of shears, as a test correctly adjusted blades will cleanly cut a piece of good
quality writing paper across the width of the blade. The bottom blade should be adjusted if the grass
is not cut cleanly and evenly.
WARNING – Blades are sharp always wear gloves
To set the cutting cylinder cartridge on cut:
1) Tilt the mower back and wedge securely
2) Turn the adjuster screws anti clockwise to move the bottom blade closer to the cylinder
Turn the adjuster screws clockwise to move the bottom blade further from the cylinder
3) When adjusting the bottom blade, frequently check progress by cutting a piece of
paper
