mulched a second time to completely hide
the clippings. When doing a second cut,
mow across or perpendicular to the first
cut path. DO NOT MOW
PERPENDICULAR TO THE FIRST PATH
IF IT WOULD CAUSE MOWING
ACROSS A HILL.
Change your cutting pattern from week to
week. Mow north to south one week and
east to west the next week. This will help
prevent matting and graining of the lawn.

BLADE SHARPENING
Sharpening the blade twice during a
mowing season is usually sufficient under
normal circumstances. Sand causes the
blade to dull fast. If your lawn has sandy
soil, more frequent sharpenings are
required.
REPLACE BENT OR DAMAGED BLADE
IMMEDIATELY.
WHEN SHARPENING THE BLADE:
1. Make sure blade remains balanced.
2. Sharpen blade at the original cutting
angle.
3. Sharpen cutting edges on both ends of
blade, removing equal amounts of
material from both ends.
TO SHARPEN BLADE IN A VISE:
See Figure 10
1. Be sure the switch lever is released
and the blade has stopped and the
cord unplugged before removing the
blade.
2. Remove blade from mower. See
instructions for removing and attaching
blade.
3. Secure blade in a vise as shown in
figure 10.
4. Wear safety glasses and be careful
not to cut yourself.
5. Carefully file the cutting edges of the
blade with a fine tooth file or
sharpening stone.

BLADE BALANCING
Check balance of blade by placing centre
hole in blade over a nail or screwdriver
shank, clamped horizontally in a vise.
If either end of the blade rotates
downward, file that end. Blade is
properly balanced when neither end
drops. (Fig. 11)
