Troubleshooting
There are a number of factors that can contribute to un-
satisfactory quality  of cut, some  of which may  be turf
conditions. Turf  conditions such  as excessive  thatch,
uneven ground conditions, “sponginess” or  attempting
to cut off too much grass height may not always be over-
come by adjusting the cutting deck or machine.
Remember that the  “effective” or actual height−of−cut
depends on cutting unit weight, tire pressures, hydraulic
counterbalance settings  and turf  conditions. Effective
height−of−cut will be different than the bench set height−
of−cut.
