    so our course just got a brand new baroness lm315 gc and ive never worked with them before. i am trying to figure out the perferct height setting that would equal a newer style toro reel at 115. i was told by baroness that 140 is close to the equivelent but i kind of doubt that . i was told they were more agressive as well but just from the looks it doesent seem to be. trying tho find the best rear roller setting to use as well thats not to agressive. let me know what you guys think. thanks

    Weight makes a big difference.  Our Deere mowers seem to vary a lot.  To get a roughly .120 true height of cut as observed by prism, the 220B walk mowers are set about .135, standard triplex units about .125. and, and QA5 units at .095.

    I have used 1 Baroness walk mower before and we had to set it at .180", as compared to .125" with our Flex 21's. It was very heavy (lots of gears) compared to the Toro.
