  • Page 137: Quality Of Cut

    QUALITY OF CUT QUALITY OF CUT QUALITY OF CUT TROUBLESHOOTING _________________________________ It is recommended that a “test cut” be performed to evaluate the mower’s performance before beginning repairs. An area should be available where “test cuts” can be made. This area should provide known and consistent turf condi- tions to allow accurate evaluation of the mower’s performance.

  • Page 138: Washboarding

    QUALITY OF CUT WASHBOARDING____________________________________________________ Washboarding is a cyclical pattern of varying cutting heights, resulting in a wave-like cut appearance. In most cases, the wave tip-to-tip distance is approximately 6—8 in. (15—20 cm). Color variation (light-to-dark) may also be noticed. This condition is usually caused by a rocking motion in the cutting unit(s).

  • Page 139: Marcelling

    QUALITY OF CUT MARCELLING _______________________________________________________ Marcelling, like washboarding, is a cyclical pattern of varying cutting heights, resulting in a wave-like cut appearance. In most cases, the wave tip-to-tip distance is 2 in. (5 cm) or less. TN0220 NOTE: Arrow indicates direction of travel. Probable Cause Remedy Mowing (ground) speed is too fast.

  • Page 140: Step Cutting

    QUALITY OF CUT STEP CUTTING ______________________________________________________ Step cutting occurs when grass is cut taller on one side of a reel than the other or one cutting unit to another. This is usually caused by mechanical wear or an incorrect roller or HOC (height-of-cut) adjustment.

  • Page 141: Scalping

    QUALITY OF CUT SCALPING _________________________________________________________ Scalping is a condition in which areas of grass are cut noticeably shorter than the surrounding areas, resulting in a light green or even brown patch. This is usually caused by an excessively low height-of-cut (HOC) setting and/or uneven turf.

  • Page 142: Stragglers

    QUALITY OF CUT STRAGGLERS ______________________________________________________ Stragglers are scattered blades of uncut or poorly cut grass. TN0223 NOTE: Arrow indicates direction of travel. Probable Cause Remedy Bedknife improperly adjusted. Adjust reel-to-bedknife setting. Dull reel or bedknife cutting edges. Sharpen or replace reel blade and bedknife as necessary. Mowing (ground) speed is too fast.

  • Page 143: Streaks

    QUALITY OF CUT STREAKS __________________________________________________________ A streak is a line of uncut grass. This is usually caused by a nicked or bent bedknife. TN0224 NOTE: Arrow indicates direction of travel. Probable Cause Remedy Damaged bedknife. Replace bedknife. Damaged or unevenly worn reel. Inspect reel.

  • Page 144: Windrowing

    QUALITY OF CUT WINDROWING ______________________________________________________ Windrowing is the deposit of clippings concentrated at one end of cutting unit(s) or between two cutting units, forming a line in the direction of travel. TN0225 NOTE: Arrow indicates direction of travel. Probable Cause Remedy Grass is too tall.

  • Page 145: Rifling Or Tramlining

    QUALITY OF CUT RIFLING OR TRAMLINING_____________________________________________ Rifling or tramlining is a pattern of varying cutting heights, resulting in a wave-like cut appearance, usually due to heavy contact points across a reel and/or bedknife. NOTE: Arrow indicates direction of travel. Probable Cause Remedy Reel and/or bedknife unevenly worn.
