Always handle the blade with care - sharp edges
could cause injury. USE GLOVES.

gloved hand and with a spanner, loosen the blade bolt
by turning it anti-clockwise

insert a screwdriver

sure the screwdriver is removed before atempting to
turn on the machine.
Renew your metal blade after 50 hours mowing or 2
