2. Insert a 0.060 inch feeler gauge between the top of the
reel and the bar and tighten the screws. Ensure the bar
and reel are equal distance apart across the complete
reel for optimum performance.
Note: The bar is adjustable to compensate for changes
in turf conditions. Adjust the bar closer to the reel
when the turf is extremely dry. By contrast, adjust the
bar further away from the reel when the turf conditions
are wet. Adjust the bar whenever you sharpen the reel
on a reel grinder.
