Scalping —
Mowing the grass at a low height thereby removing too much blade surface and
exposing brown stems and crowns. Reel mowers are prone to scalp only where the center
of the turf area is higher than the supporting cutting unit ends. Scalping is caused by
inability to follow contours as a result of excessive speed, improper skid or roller
adjustment, too low a HOC, bumpy terrain, rough soil. Scalping also refers to the turf
preparation done for overseeding.
Shear Point —
The point where the reel blade and the bedknife make contact and the grass blade is
actually cut.
