Replacing the Blades
Before cleaning, repairing, or inspecting, make certain the blade(s) and all
moving parts have stopped. Turn off the engine, remove the key, disconnect
the spark plug wire(s) and the negative battery cable to prevent unintended
starting. Always wear safety glasses or safety goggles during operation and
while performing an adjustment or repair to protect your eyes.
1. Remove the deck as instructed in the Deck Removal section.
2. For easier access, flip the deck over, then jack up the front of the deck about one
foot and block it in that position.
To remove the blade:
1. Secure the blade from turning counterclockwise during service by placing a block
of wood between the blade and the deck housing (Figure 55), or wrap a rag
around one end of the blade and wear heavy gloves to grasp the blade firmly.
2. Remove the flange lock nut (a) and flat washer (b) from the spindle shaft and
remove the blade (c) (Figure 56).
To replace or reinstall the blade:
1. Put the blade in place on the spindle shaft. Be sure to install the blade with
the side marked "Bottom" or "Grass Side" (or with a part number stamped in
it) facing the ground when the deck is reinstalled on the mower and in the
operating position.
2. Carefully place the flat washer on the spindle shaft. Be sure that the splines at the
base of the spindle shaft threads line up with the washer splines (Figure 57).
