Inspection

Tilt the mower to the right, so the air cleaner side is up. This will help to prevent fuel
leakage and hard starting.

Inspect the blade for damage, cracks and excessive rust or corrosion.
A dull blade can be sharpened, but a blade that is excessively worn, bent, cracked, or
otherwise damaged must be replaced.
Check that the blade bolts are tight.
Removal and installation
Wear heavy gloves to protect your hands.

Remove the bolt with a socket wrench. Use a wooden block to prevent the blade from
turning when removing the bolt. Then remove the blade.

Install the blade using the blade bolt and special washers. Be sure to install the special
washers with the concave side toward the blade and the convex side toward the bolt.

Tighten the blade bolt with a torque wrench. Use a wooden block to prevent the blade
from turning when tightening the bolt.
