How Tight Can You Trim?

A Simple Geometry Lesson

Trim Coupling is the distance from a trimming point* on the deck to the point where it intersects the projected axle line of the drive tires at a right angle.

Trim Overhang is the distance between the Trim Coupling intersection with projected axle line and the outer edge of the drive tire.

Using a concrete seam or a metal square, you can easily estimate, or precisely measure, these two values; the result calculates a mower's physical ability to trim around an obstacle.

Review the example and test it out yourself by entering the measurements of your mower's trim coupling and trim overhang.

*Most accurate results come from decks with contoured housings where blade tips are close to the deck edge.
