Side Cutting Unit Setup
Rotate the blade of each spindle until the ends face forward
and backward. Measure from the floor to the front tip of the
cutting edge. Adjust 3 mm (1/8 inch) shims on front castor
arm(s) to match the height of cut to the decal
the outside blade spindle only, refer to
Unit Pitch (page

Matching the Height of Cut Between Cutting Units
1. Position the blade side to side on the outside spindle
of both side cutting units. Measure from the floor to
the tip of the cutting edge on both units and compare.
These numbers should be within 3 mm (1/8 inch) of
each other. Make no adjustment at this time.
2. Position the blade side to side on the inside spindle
of the side cutting unit and the corresponding outside
spindle of the front cutting unit. Measure from the
floor to the tip of the cutting edge on inside edge of the

side cutting unit to the corresponding outside edge of
the front cutting unit and compare.
Note: The side cutting unit measurement should be
within 3 mm (1/8 inch) of the front cutting unit.
Note: All 3 cutting units castor wheels should remain
on the ground with counterbalance applied.
Note: If adjustments need to be made to match the
cut between the front and side cutting units, make the
adjustments to the side cutting units only.
3. If the inside edge of the side cutting unit is too high
relative to the outside edge of the front cutting unit,
remove 1 shim from the bottom of the front inside
castor arm on the side cutting unit
the measurement again between outside edges of both
side cutting units and inside edge of side cutting unit to
outside edge of front cutting unit.
4. If inside edge is still too high, remove an additional
shim from bottom of front, inside castor arm of the
side cutting unit and 1 shim from the front outside
castor arm of the side cutting unit.
5. If the inside edge of the side cutting unit is too low
relative to the outside edge of the front cutting unit,
add 1 shim to the bottom of the front inside castor
arm on the side cutting unit. Check the measurement
between outside edges of both side cutting units and
the inside edge of the side cutting unit to the outside
edge of the front cutting unit.
6. If the inside edge is still too low, add an additional shim
to the bottom of the front, inside castor arm of the
side cutting unit and add 1 shim to the front outside
castor arm of the side cutting unit.
7. Once the cutting height matches at the edges of front
and side cutting units, verify that the side cutting unit
pitch is still 8 to 11 mm (5/16 to 7/16 inch). Adjust
as necessary.
