Mismatched Cutting Units
NOTE: Arrow indicates direction of travel.
Mismatched cutting units cause a pattern of varying
cutting heights, resulting in a stepped cut appearance,
usually due to a different HOC (height-of-cut) adjustment
from one cutting unit to another.
Probable Cause Remedy
HOC inconsistent from one cutting unit to another. Check/adjust HOC on cutting units to same height. (See
“Height-of-Cut (HOC) Adjustment” on page 6-17.)
Check condition of cutting unit frame and/or mower frame. Repair or
replace as needed.
Difference in reel motor speeds. Check operation of reel motor(s) and repair/replace as necessary.
Difference in mower ride height side-to-side. Check/adjust tire inflation pressure. (Refer to “Safety, Operation,
and Maintenance Manual.”)
