Be sure to carefully balance blade after sharpening. The blade can be tested for balance by
balancing it on a round shaft screwdriver. Remove metal from the heavy side until it balances
evenly.
Before reassembling the blade and the blade adapter to the unit, lubricate the engine
crankshaft and the inner surface of the blade adapter with light oil. Install the blade adapter on
the crankshaft with the "star" away from the engine. Refer to figure 15. Place the blade with
the part number facing away from the adapter. Align the washer over the blade and insert the
hex bolt. Tighten the hex bolt to the torque listed below:
9.3.3
Blade mounting torque
Centre Bolt 40 Nm-50 Nm, to insure safe operation of your unit. ALL nuts and bolts must be
checked periodically for correct tightness.
After prolonged use, especially in sandy soil conditions, the blade will become worn and lose
some of the original shape. Cutting efficiently will be reduced and the blade should be
replaced. Replace with an approved factory replacement blade only. Possible damage
resulting from blade unbalance condition is not the responsibility of the manufacturer.
When you change the blade you must use the original type marked on the blade.

unauthorized persons.
Caution! The engine must have completely cooled down before storing the
lawnmower.
NOTE:
When storing any type of power equipment in an unventilated or material storage shed,
care should be taken to rust-proof the equipment. Using a light oil or silicone, coat the
equipment, especially cables and all moving parts.
