OPERATION
WARNING: If you strike a foreign object, stop the motor and disconnect the power
cord. Thoroughly inspect the mower for any damage. Repair any damage before
operating the mower.
Cutting Blade Replacement (Fig. 10 & Fig. 11)
WARNING: Always protect your hands by wearing heavy gloves and/or wrapping
the cutting edges with rags or other materials when performing any maintenance on
the blades.
1. Release the switch lever to turn the mower OFF, wait for the blade to come to a
complete stop.
2. While wearing leather padded gloves, wedge a block of wood between the blade
and the mower deck in order to prevent the blade from turning when the nut is
being removed.
3. Using a 15-mm wrench or socket, loosen the blade nut (1)
"COUNTERCLOCKWISE" to loosen it and "CLOCKWISE" to tighten it.
4. Remove the blade nut (1), the square washer (2), and the blade (3).
5. To re-install the blade, position the blade with the cutting edges toward the
ground. Assemble the blade, the square washer, and the blade nut as shown in
the following. Using a 15-mm wrench or socket, turn the blade nut "CLOCKWISE"
to secure the blade.
NOTE: Be sure to replace the parts in the exact order in which they were removed.
When installing the cutting blade, verify that it is installed with the curved ends
pointing toward the mower deck.
MAINTENANCE
Clean the Mower
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not expose the mower to water.
The underside of mower deck should be cleaned after each use as grass clippings,
leaves, dirt and other debris will accumulate causing rust and corrosion.
Remove any buildup of grass and leaves on or around the motor cover (do not use
water). Wipe the mower clean with a dry cloth occasionally.
• If debris build up on the underside of the unit while using, stop the motor and
disconnect it from the power supply. Tilt the mower forward, or on its side, and
scrape it clean with an appropriate tool.
