Setting Height-of-Cut
Checking or Adjusting Attitude for Used
Cutting Units
Note: As a starting point for adjusting cutting
unit attitude, the cutting unit may be
set up using the dimensions from
Table 1. However, because of wear on
the bedknife and reel, the following
procedure must be used to ensure the
correct attitude setting.
1. Rotate cutting unit backward to gain access to
reel and bedknife.
2. Place an angle indicator, Toro Part No. 99–3503,
on the bedknife and record the bedknife angle
(Fig. 9).

4. Place the gauge bar across front and rear rollers.
The first screw head needs to fit snugly over
edge of the bedknife,while the gauge bar
contacts the front roller (Fig. 10).
Note: The rear roller does not have to contact
the gauge bar.
5. Adjust second screw to contact bedknife. Move
rear roller up, if needed.
6. Place an angle indicator on the gauge bar and
record the gauge bar angle (Fig. 10).
