Removing the Blades
Replace the blades if you hit a solid object or if the
blades are out of balance or bent. To ensure optimum
performance and continued safety conformance of
the machine, use genuine Toro replacement blades.
Replacement blades made by other manufacturers
may result in non-conformance with safety standards.
1. Hold the blade bolt with a wrench.
2. Remove the nut, blade bolt, curved washer,
blade, spacers, and thin washer from the spindle
(
