• When sharpening the blades, be careful not to overheat
the blade steel causing the blade material to become
brittle and prone to early failure.
• Grind each blade to the similar shape and size so as to
not create a set of mismatched blades.
• ALWAYS sharpen or replace cutter blades as set.
• NEVER mix and match used blades with new blades as
they will cause the brush cutter to be unbalanced and
result in a vibration that may cause damage to other
brush cutter parts.
• Install blades in the same orientation they were in
when removed.
• Opposing blades must be installed in the same
orienation.
• Flip all blades at the same time if you wish to use the
blades opposing edges.
Blade Sharpening and Replacement Notes
4.7 Blade Installation
Blades must be installed as a set to ensure proper balance of the blade
holder. Improper balance will cause vibrations that could result in
component failure.
