SPA Cutting Units
Possible Problem/Correction
Check bedknife to reel contact daily. Bedknife must
have light contact all across the reel. No contact will
cause cutting edges to become dull. Excessive contact
accelerates wear; quality of cut may be adversely
affected.
Slightly dull cutting edges may be corrected by
backlapping, Excessively dull cutting edges must be
corrected by grinding the reel and bedknife.
Make sure front rollers on all cutting units are in the
same position.
Rear roller must be set so that it is parallel with the reel
before setting height of cut.
Make sure all cutting units are set at the same height
of cut. Set units as specified in the Operator's Manual.
Check bedbar end bushings, adjuster pivot bushings
and nylon flanged bushings for wear or damage.
Check adjustment knob to make sure detent holds
adjustment.
Use cutting unit model with the correct number of
blades for clip frequency and optimum quality of cut
range (see Specifications).
Check lift arms and cutting unit pivot linkages for wear,
damage, binding, or bent pivot pins.
All rollers should rotate freely. Make sure bearings are
properly lubricated. Replace bearings if worn or
damaged.
