Tru Cut Reel Height

12 years ago

Question please - my Bermuda lawn seems to look it's best at about 2" in the summer, but I can't seem to get the reel high enough on my Tru Cut 25" to get that length of cut. With the arm raised at the highest position, it seems to leave the grass at about 1.25 to 1.5".

I have the roller on instead of the wheels.

Am I out of luck ?

There is a height adjustment you can make that will raise the height to about 2 inches. Look at where your roller connects on each side. There will be an upper and lower hole for the bolts. Use the upper hole to remount your roller paying attention to each bolt, washer and nut when you take it off. The upper and lower bolt are different. Do not tighten it down too much when you reinstall it as it needs to slide up and down the groove. That should do it.

Thanks Steven for replying - I'm not sure I'm following you ...
my roller is attached with 2 bolts on each side. Each of the two bolts on a side runs in a slide slot. Are you suggesting using only the bottom slide slot with the top bolt on the roller attachment ?
