•
Cannot bear traces of damage such as bending, or other deformations.
•
It must be securely fastened to the flange with fixing screws.
•
Must be sharp.

The fastening screws must be free of any damage.
The blade is statically balanced by the manufacturer for proper and reliable operation. This balance must be
maintained throughout the use of the blade. After each sharpening, it is necessary to balance the blade statically.
The blade screw must be tightened sufficiently.
If the blade is damaged, it is forbidden:

must be replaced.

When replacing the blade, use new fastening screws if the existing ones show signs of damage. Only steel,
high-strength screws can be used as fasteners. The use of other screws is strictly prohibited.
•
If the mowing unit starts vibrating after starting up the engine and engaging the blade, do not continue
working with the mower, turn it off and contact your dealer.
•
Use the table torques for tightening.
