Wish I had a Revolution 26 to backlap! One day I’ll replace a 19yr old 20” TruCut that I bought 4 yrs ago getting into reel mowing. But until then I’ll keep buying those replacement parts from your store.
To set it up for backslapping, should I leave some clearance between the reel and the bed knife? I know in some of your other non Revolution video you have suggested that. I have a feeler gauge that I use to test the gap between the reel and bedknife so can I very precise. Thanks.
@@AMaleet lol. In full transparency, I am unfamiliar with mowing cool season grass with a reel mower so please, educate me because I’m unsure how Rye and KBG wear reels
First! 🎉😂 Thanks for all the extra details in this video. I had no idea the relief grind bedknife acted like that for backlaps.
Thanks for the Video!
Thanks Lee! Massively helpful. You’re a natural in front of the camera and explain things so well.
Love my Rev! Also based on your calculations I'll be back lapping twice a month lol. Yes I have a big lawn and love to mow
Just backlapped my Rev26 yesterday and headed out now to enjoy the mow.
Great vid thx! Do we use both 80 n 120 grit?

It truly is worth it! I got mine a few weeks ago and it makes all the difference in the world!!!!
Maneuvers lots easier than my CT. Love the Rev26
Great job Lee and RR team!! Any need to lubricate the chains as well? Thanks! 👍
Thank you Lee

probably worth specifying that you need a thin walled socket to spin the reel
So I guess us cold season owners don’t have to backlap? Hahaha
