Scalping
NOTE: One cutting unit width shown. Arrow indicates
direction of travel.
Scalping is areas of grass 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. (See “Height-of-Cut
Adjustment” on page 8-14.)
Turf too uneven for the mower to follow. Try a different mowing direction.
Incorrect bedknife for HOC. Install correct bedlknife for desired HOC. (See “Bedknife” on
page 8-17.)
Cutting too much grass at one time. Mow more often.
