The blades are to far up into the deck for heavy wet grass. This was always a problem with the Case decks whether its a J44, J46, or what ever. The best way to fix is to trim the leading edge of the deck so that it is about 1/8" higher than the cutting edge of the blade. If you trim it any higher the only thing that will be accomplished is the throwing of projectiles out the front of the deck causing flat tires on the front wheels and possible personal injury to someone. The best fix is to mow more often.

No they don't have to be "timed", but it sounds like you have the wrong blades. The next smaller mower is a 38". the only other thing I can think of is a frozen idler bracket on the deck belt not keeping it tight enuf. I'll check the spec on the blades tuesday, an let you know.

I am asumming the blades you have are identical length, you need to time the two blades opposite the discharge, I other words they need to be in sinc 360 degrees or come together at one point in a circle excatly at the same time, I hope you can understand that
