6.10 UNIT COUNTERBALANCE CONTROL
Cutting unit ground pressure can be varied within
preset limits and is controlled by the handwheel (A)
on the right hand side of the operator's seat located
next to the lift/lower lever. The handwheel is turned
clockwise to reduce the groundweight of the cutting
unit, improving slope climbing ability.
The handwheel is turned anti clockwise to increase
the ground weight of the unit. Increased down pres-
sure will reduce the likelyhood of cutting unit bounce
when cutting undulating ground. When cutting level
ground the normal setting is midway way between
the maximum and minimum positions.

6.11 VARIABLE CYLINDER SPEED
The speed of rotation of the cutting cylinders is
adjustable by means of the handwheel (A) situated
on the left hand side of the operator. Cylinder speed
should be set to maximum in normal cutting condi-
tions. In very long growth conditions, cylinder speed
should be reduced to obtain best finish,cylinder
speed should also be reduced when cutting very
short, dry grass to prevent excesive cylinder and
bottom blade wear. Rotate the hand wheel clockwise
to increase cylinder speed, anticlockwise to decrease
cylinder speed.
