Adjusting the Reel Speed
G411273
1. Verify the height-of-cut setting on the cutting
units. Use the column of the Reel Speed
Selection Chart listing either 8-blade or 11-
blade reels, and find the height-of-cut listing
nearest the actual height-of-cut setting. Look
across the chart to find the reel-speed number
that corresponds to that height-of-cut.
2. Lift the cover
from the control arm.

3. Turn the reel-speed-control knob to the
reel-speed number determined in Step 1.
4. Install the cover on the control arm.
5. Operate the machine for several days, then
examine the cut to ensure the quality-of-cut.
The reel speed knob may be set 1 position on
either side of the reel-speed number indicated
on the chart to account for differences in grass
condition, grass length removed, and personal
preference.
