BLADE REPLACEMENT
Secure blade and unscrew the blade bolt using a
spanner wrench. Remove the washer and the blade.
Fit a new blade or re-sharpen the blade. Locate the
blade on the two studs and then replace the washer
and bolts. Make sure the blade is located correctly and
then firmly tighten the bolt. Do not over tighten. The up
turn of the blade must project into the motor
compartment.
FOR SAFETY REASONS YOU SHOULD ONLY EVER HAVE YOUR BLADE
SHARPENED , BALANCED AND MOUNTED BY AN AUTHORISED SERVICE
WORKSHOP. FOR OPTIMUM RESULTS IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE
BLADE SHOULD BE INSPECTED ONCE A YEAR.
WARNING!

(not provided) to remove the blade.

USE GLOVES
. Renew your metal blade after 50Hrs mowing or 2yrs whichever
is sooner regardless of condition.
WARNING!

NOTE!
Maintain the sharpness of the blade when cutting grass. If the blade has
worn excessively and become pitted and blunt, it should be replaced or
sharpened. The sharpness of the blade will affect the performance of the
