Maintenance
When performing any maintenance on this unit, spark
plug wire must be disconnected and placed away from
spark plug to prevent accidental starting!
Servicing the blade:
Turn off engine and remove spark plug wire.
After removing make sure the plug wire is not laying near the spark plug!
Remove the nuts from the intake (or discharge) chute and rotate the chute out of
the way.
Rotate the drum until the blade is visible like the above photo. You can rotate the
drum by pulling the starter cord but can be rotated by hand (wearing gloves) more
precisely. Remove the three bolts holding the blade and remove. Rotate the blade,
using the other cutting surface or replace the blade. Torque bolts to 37 ft/lbs.
Use blue Loctite on clean threads.
