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, either the First or Second
Method must be used to insure the correct setting of the
attitude.

FIRST METHOD (Angle Indicator):
1. Rotate the cutting unit backward to gain access to
the reel and bedknife.
2. Place an angle indicator, Toro part no. 99-3503, on
the bedknife and record the bedknife angle
(Fig. 15).

3. Using a two-screw gauge bar, Toro part no. 98-
1852, set the first screw to desired height of cut.
4. Place the gauge bar across the front and rear rollers.
The first screw head needs to fit snugly over the
edge of the bedknife, while the gauge bar contacts
the front roller (Fig. 16).
NOTE: The rear roller does not have to contact the
gauge bar.
5. Place an angle indicator on the gauge bar and
record the gauge bar angle (Fig. 16).
