ABSTRACT:
A reel blade mower that provides for proper reel blade contact pressure on the bed knife at all times without any system adjustment. The mower includes a free floating reel blade suspended on a pair of pivotal support arms that is not mechanically fixed to a rigid position, but that is free to move vertically relative to the bed knife. The overall force of the reel blade in contact with the bed knife (contact pressure) is determined by combining the downward vector from the weight of the blade system and the force vector generated by the rotary movement of the reel blades. The mower is not damaged by debris engaging the reel blade or bed knife which easily passes through.
