Setting the Reel Speed Important: It is important that proper reel speeds are used for your mowing application. Reel speeds that are too slow may result in a wave pattern in the turf, also known as clip marks, marcelling, or bobbing. If this is observed, try increasing the reel speeds or reducing the mowing speed. Reel speeds that are too fast may result in turf damage and/or premature wear of the reels, bedknives, and other mechanical components.
