Troubleshooting
When addressing aftercut appearance issues you may need to make physical changes to
components of the cutting unit or traction unit. Use a systematic and scientific approach to
troubleshooting issues in a timely and effective manner. Make only one change at a time and
take careful notes of the result before making additional changes or adjustments (allow time for
analysis), to isolate issues and determine possible corrective actions. Begin by following these
actions:
•
•
•
Define the issue by asking questions and making personal observations. The issue must be
clearly defined before you can begin to correctly address it.
Evaluate turf conditions for their contribution to the outcome (include weather trends such as
extreme wet or dry and recent turf maintenance such as top dressing, etc.).
Verify the traction unit is operating properly and in good condition (no switches jumped,
proper RPM, maintenance is up to date, etc).
•
•
Check and recheck the cutting units for accurate and proper setup.
Understand and be able to duplicate the complaint or condition.
