Checking Cutting Performance

Preparation

You’ll need several 1" x 8" strips of standard printer paper (not newspaper)

and a pair of work gloves.

WARNING: The mower blades are sharp. Wear gloves when

performing this procedure, and keep ﬁngers away from the interface

between the cutting reel blades and stationary blade.

Check #1: Do the Blades Make Contact?

1. Ensure that the mower cannot roll forward by positioning it on a ﬁrm,

level surface with blocks in front of the rear wheels. Then raise the mower

to the highest position to improve access.

2. To check if the blades make contact, with the mower resting on all four

wheels, slowly turn the cutting reel (A) by lifting upward, one blade at a

time, through a full rotation or two. If you hear scraping or feel resistance,

skip the remainder of this section and proceed to Adjusting the Blades

on page 11.

ATTENTION: If the cutting reel and stationary blade make contact,

the mower will be difﬁcult to push and may dull the blades.

Check #2: Do the Blades Cut Properly?

1. Turn the mower onto its side.

2. To check if the blades cut properly, you will need to check the blades

on both ends of the mower. Starting with the end closest to the ground,

feed a strip of paper between a cutting reel blade (A) and the stationary

blade (B), keeping the paper ﬂush against the side (C) of the stationary

blade (B). About half an inch of the strip should be visible beyond the

stationary blade.

IMPORTANT: The StaySharp

™

Cutting System is engineered

to cut grass without contact between the blades. This cutting system

was precision-set during assembly. However, since slippage may occur

during shipping, handling or use, it is very important to check the cutting

performance prior to rst use and periodically thereafter. Since slippage

can occur in two directions, two checks are required to evaluate cutting

performance — both checks need to be performed on both the left

and right side of the mower. Checking the cutting performance and

adjusting it as needed is the most important thing you can do to

ensure that your mower always performs optimally.

WARNING: Keep your ﬁngers away from the cutting area; they should

be to the right of the stationary blade.

3. Slowly rotate the cutting reel (A) toward the stationary blade (B), observing

whether the paper is cut as the ﬁrst cutting reel blade passes.

4. Continue to feed the paper into the reel horizontally half an inch at a time to

check the other blades.

5. Now check the opposite end of the reel by sliding the paper to the end

farthest from the ground and checking if the blades cut properly on that end.

6. If most of the blades cut on both ends, the cutting system is set correctly.

If all or most of the blades do not cut on one or both ends, the cutting system

needs to be adjusted. Proceed to Adjusting the Blades below.

ATTENTION: Failure to correct an improperly set cutting system will result

in poor cutting performance and uncut blades of grass.

Adjusting the Blades

The tools required are an 11 mm wrench or socket and a Phillips screwdriver.

1. With the mower resting on all four wheels, use the Phillips screwdriver to

loosen the adjustment lock screw (C) on both sides, then lift the adjustment

locks (D) over both adjustment bolts.

2. Turn the mower onto its side.

3. With the adjustment locks (D) lifted and turned to the side, adjust the

stationary blade by turning the adjustment bolts (E) as described below.

ATTENTION: When making adjustments, it is very important to turn both

adjustment bolts (E) with the same small adjustments (less than 1/8 of a turn

at a time) so the stationary blade is supported evenly on both sides. Never

turn one adjustment bolt without also turning the other the same amount.

If one bolt is turned signiﬁcantly more than the other, one bolt will become

loose and be unable to properly support the stationary blade. If this occurs,

simply tighten the loose bolt so that both bolts have the same tension.

• If the blades did not cut paper:

Move the whole stationary blade closer to the cutting reel by making

small counter-clockwise turns on both ends until the blades just barely

come into contact. Then make small clockwise adjustments on either

end until the blades no longer touch. Be sure to turn both bolts equally.

• If the blades made contact:

Move the whole stationary blade away from the cutting reel by making

small clockwise turns on both ends, stopping as soon as the blades lose

contact. Be sure to turn both bolts equally. Then test that most of the

blades cut paper on both ends.

4. After the blades are properly adjusted, replace the adjustment locks and

ﬁrmly tighten the screws.

ATTENTION: If you have followed the directions for adjusting the blades

and are still not cutting paper on one or both sides of the mower, choose

the setting that maximizes the number of blades that cut paper and take

the mower out for a test pass. If the mower cuts to your satisfaction and the

blades do not make contact, you have adjusted the mower correctly. If the

mower does not cut to your satisfaction, the stationary blade and cutting

reel may be out of parallel alignment. If this is the case, proceed to Aligning

the Cutting Reel and Stationary Blade on page 12.
