Mower Blade Replacement

IMPORTANT:  Refer to the

 Safety 

section of this manual for 

blade handling safety information. 

 

A 15/16" wrench is required to remove the 5/8" cap screw

 

holding the blade to the spindle shaft. 

NOTE:

 A blade holding 

tool (P/N 381442) is available from Hustler

®

 Turf Equipment. 

It is designed to prevent the blades from rotating when they 
are being removed or installed on the spindle. Contact your 
Hustler

®

 Dealer for more information.

Do not re-use spindle bolts which have stripped, worn or 

undercut threads. Torque bolts on spindles to 160.0 N•m
when reinstalling blades. 

Properly compressed cup washers maintain the correct 

compression load on the blades. Replace the cup washers if 
they are cracked or flattened.

IMPORTANT:  

The blade sail (curved part) must be point-

ing upward toward the inside of the deck to ensure proper 
cutting.

When mounting blades, rotate them after installation to 

make sure blade tips do not touch each other or sides of the 
mower.

Mower Blade Options

The following is a list of the approved mower blade options 

that are available from Hustler

®

 Turf Equipment for this

Any maintenance operation that requires

following are the adjustments for each of these seats.

Mower blades are sharp and can cut. Wrap the 
blade(s) or wear gloves and use extra caution 
when servicing them. 

Failure to correctly torque the bolt may result in 
the loss of the blade which can cause serious 
injury.

WARNING

WARNING

Use only genuine Hustler

®

 replacement blades to 

ensure that original standards are maintained. Fail-
ure to use approved blades could lead to blade 
breakage which could result in death, injury or prop-
erty damage.
