CARE AND MAINTENANCE
REPLACING THE CUTTING BLADE
WARNING
Always protect your hands by wearing heavy gloves and/or wrapping the cutting
edges with rags or other materials when performing any maintenance on the
blades. ALWAYS remove the battery when servicing or transporting the mower.
REMOVE BATTERY
While wearing leather padded gloves, wedge a block of wood between the blade and the mower
deck in order to prevent the blade from turning when the bolt (1) is being removed.
•
Using an adjustable wrench or 27 mm socket, loosen the bolt (1) and remove the blade (2). Turn
the bolt “COUNTERCLOCK WISE” to loosen it and “CLOCKWISE” to tighten it.
•
Remove the bolt (1) and the blade (2).
•
To re-install the blade, position the blade with the cutting edges toward the ground. Assemble
the bolt as shown. Using a 27 mm socket or wrench, turn the blade nut “CLOCKWISE” in order
to secure the blade.
NOTE: Be sure to replace the parts in the exact order in which they were removed. When installing
the cutting blade, verify that it is installed with the curved ends pointing toward the mower deck, and
not toward the ground.
