ADJUSTMENTS
1. Turn mower upside-down.
2. Insert a piece of paper between the cutter bar and the reel blades,
and carefully turn the reel wheels by hand.
3. All of the blades should slice the paper evenly, along the entire length
of the cutter bar, while the reel turns smoothly.
4. If the mower produces an intermittent cut, the appropriate side of the
blades should be adjusted in order to achieve the proper cutting action.
GENERAL CARE 1. A minimal amount of care is required in order to ensure the smooth operation of the mower. 2. In order to avoid damage to the mower or to the cutting blades, keep the area to be mowed free of any debris. 3. For best results, regularly apply oil or lubricant to the mower’s cutting surfaces, cutting reel axle shaft, and wheels. WARNING: Clean any grinding compound or debris from the cutting bar blade, reel blade, pinions, and pawls.
NOTE: Use a 10 MM socket or wrench to adjust the cutting bar. Use an industrial or valve lapping compound of between 100 and 240 grit on the blades in order to ensure that all traces of compound are removed. Lubricate the axle and pinion with a light film of wheel bearing grease.
