11.2.4 STEP CUTTING
NOTE: Arrow indicates direction of travel.
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.
Probable Cause Remedy
HOC (height-of-cut) settings are
different from one side of a reel to the
other or from one cutting unit to
another.
Check HOC adjustment of cutting units.
Worn front roller bearings. Check/replace front roller bearings.
Reel-to-bedknife contact is different
from one side of the cutting unit to the
other or from one cutting unit to
another.
Check reel-to-bedknife contact.
Cutting reel movement is restricted. Check/remove cutting reel movement obstruction.
Variations in turf density. Change mowing direction.
Machine weight distribution is uneven. Check/adjust tire inflation pressure.
