Sharpen the Mower Blades

Figure 18.

1. Remove mower blade from unit.

Discard mower blade if:

More than 1.27 cm (1/2 in.) of metal is removed.

Air lifts become eroded.

Blade is bent or broken.

2. Sharpen mower blade by removing an equal amount of 

material from each end of mower blade. DO NOT 
change angle of cutting edge or round the corner of the 
mower blade.

3. Check mower blade balance.

Slide mower blade on an unthreaded bolt. A balanced 
blade should remain in a horizontal position. If either 
end of mower blade moves downward, sharpen the 
heavy end until blade is balanced.

4. Install mower blade(s) on unit (See Replace Mower 

Blades on page 22).

4. Remove spindle shaft, lower bearing and spacer from

the spindle housing.

9. Install the upper bearing.

10. Install spacer.

assembly. Tighten bolt to 163 N•m (120 lbf.-ft). 

CAUTION: DO NOT sharpen mower blades 
while on unit. An unbalanced mower blade will 
cause excessive vibration and eventual 
damage to unit. Check mower blade balance 
before reinstalling blades.

NEVER weld or straighten bent blades.
