MAINTENANCE

REPLACING THE CUTTING BLADE (See Figure 12)
W A R N I N G
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. ALWAYS remove the battery when servicing or transporting the
lawn mower.
• REMOVE BATTERY.
• While wearing leather padded gloves, wedge a block of wood between the
blade and the lawn mower deck in order to prevent the blade from turning
when the bolt (1) is being removed.
• Using an adjustable wrench or 16 mm socket, loosen the bolt (1), spacer
(3) and remove the blade (2). Turn the bolt "COUNTERCLOCKWISE" to
loosen it and "CLOCKWISE" to tighten it.
• Remove the bolt (1), spacer (3) and the blade (2).
• To re-install the blade, position the blade with the cutting edges toward
the ground. Assemble the bolt as shown. Torque the blade bolt down
clockwise using a torque wrench (not provided) to ensure the bolt is
properly tightened. The recommended torque for the blade bolt is 24-27
lb-ft (33-37 Nm).
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 lawn mower deck, and not toward the ground.
