Check condition of blades, blade bolts and blade holder. Replace if damaged or
worn. Worn or damaged blades and bolts are a major hazard. Always replace worn
or damaged blades and bolts in sets to preserve balance.
Use only
Genuine Greenfield
branded replacement blades and bolts. Use of infe
-
rior non-genuine replacement parts on your Greenfield could result in costly dam
-
age or even personal injury.

To fit new blades refer to illustration A.
Tighten the blade bolt nut firmly. Correct torque is 44 Nm (32 ft.lbs). Blades must
be free to move but not loose. Lightly oil the blade pivot point before fitting.
Blades
Clean off all grass and other debris before storing. Sticks, stones, or an accumulation of grass and other debris will
damage belts and fracture pulleys if they go through between the pulley and belt. When operating in these conditions,
the cutter deck may require more frequent cleaning.
Never wash your I.P.D with a high pressure gun. Water and dirt could bypass the seals in the bearings causing
premature bearing failures and rusted pivot points.
Allow your I.P.D to cool after use. The quenching contraction effect from hosing the machine when it’s at operating
temperature could also draw water and dirt into the bearings.
The best way to clean your I.P.D is to use a low pressure air hose or garden blower to blow the loose grass, etc. from
around the pulleys, belts, and the top of the cutter deck. Wash the exterior the same as you would your car. For
maximum machine life, do not spray water on the engine, pulleys or bearings. Re-oil all pivots after washing.
