Scalping
NOTE: Arrow indicates direction of travel.
Scalping is a condition in which areas of grass are cut
noticeably shorter than the surrounding areas, resulting in
a light green or even brown patch. This is usually caused
by an excessively low height-of-cut setting and/or uneven
turf.
Probable Cause Remedy
HOC (height-of-cut) settings are lower than normal. Check and adjust the HOC settings. (Refer to “Safety, Operation,
and Maintenance Manual.”)
Turf too uneven for the mower to follow. Change mowing direction.
Cutting too much grass at one time. Mow more often.
Mowing (ground) speed is too fast. Reduce mowing (ground) speed.
