with the patent-pending Radius Dependent Speed™
(RDS) system. The RDS system is a clip-control
and independent wheel-speed feature that varies the
speeds of each reel motor and each traction motor to
maintain a constant clip and reduce turf scrubbing in
turns while cutting.
When the machine is turning while cutting (e.g., during
the clean-up pass), the reel on the inside of the turn
will rotate at a slower rpm than the reel on the outside
of the turn. The center reel splits the difference of the
inside and outside reel speeds so that all three cutting
units have the same clip. The sharper the turn, the
greater the difference in reel speeds. Additionally, if
the machine speed changes while you are cutting,
the RDS system adjusts the reel speed to maintain a
constant clip. This feature reduces turf thinning on
the inside reel (in comparison to other riding greens
mowers), which can reduce triplex ring.
The RDS system also adjusts each wheel-motor
speed during a turn, similar to the reel-motor speeds
changing in a turn. The inside wheel motor will turn
at a slower rpm than the outside wheel motor. This
minimizes wheel scrubbing in the turn and can reduce
triplex ring.
