Setting the Reel to Bedknife Alignment - Rolux X Series Reel Mower

The reel to bedknife setting is the most critical contact point of any reel mower. The adjustment on the Rolux Reel Mower is extremely easy although it might take one or two tries to get used to it.
This video will help you nail the alignment in no time.
Because of the hardened blades on the Rolux X Series mower, it does not need to be reset as often as regular reel mowers.
Happy Mowing!

Tight tight tight Will produce a very nice cut Happy mowing

Mine was delivered this morning. I checked the bedknife to reel using a very thin piece of waxed paper. I had to adjust the right side just slightly. It DOES NOT take much to adjust.

I just took delivery of my Rolux X20, 6 blade with Briggs XR950 and i love it! Question, are the bolts supposed to be in contact with the bearing blocks? On mine, the bolts are NOT making contact with the bearing blocks however, the mower cuts paper and grass just fine. do the bearing block bolts need adjustment or am i ok to leave them as-is?

[@Platoface]

Mine was same when I took delivery this morning. I’m thinking they do need to be in contact with bearing block otherwise the reel will continue to drop.

[@jeffho7383]

@@Platoface I ended up adjusting mine to where they DO make contact with the bearing blocks. Performed a paper test and all is well. Good luck and enjoy the mow!

kill for one of these! outside of my budget unfortunately

Thats a tight reel. 😢

[@theunkownmr.562]

Yeah, that's pretty tight. I don't like metal on metal contact. Should cut paper without making contact and the paper being around. 004 in thickness should fill in that gap.

[@AdmiralTwitchy]

yeah something has to be off. that reel is way too tight and it doesnt cut paper? thats not a good sign

[@alanread4763]

Run that for a minute and watch the sparks fly. FAIL !!!! Just saying!

Is a Rolux brand mower called a Cox in Australia?

[@stuartwilliams8615]

yes it is.

[@AdmiralTwitchy]

too bad you couldnt incorporate the toro greensmaster HOC design. has a wheel with notches in it so you can easily evenly tighten them on both sides

[@IHomeGrow]

Do you have any resellers in Canada? I'd like to become one if I can, Thanks
