PARTS INFORMATION
Rhino mowers use balanced and matched system components for blade carriers, blades, cutter shafts, knives, knife
hangers, rollers, drive train components, and bearings. These parts are made and tested to Rhino specifications. Non-
genuine "will fit" parts do not consistently meet these specifications. The use of “will fit” parts may reduce mower
performance, void warranties, and present a safety hazard. Use genuine Rhino mower parts for economy and safety.
