LUBRICATION
All of the bearings in this product are lubricated with
a suf
fi cient amount of high grade lubricant for the life of
the unit under normal operating conditions. Therefore, no
further bearing lubrication is required.
WARNING
Always protect hands by wearing heavy gloves and/or
wrapping the cutting edges of the blade with rags and
other material when performing blade maintenance.
Contact with the blade could result in serious personal
injury.
REPLACING THE CUTTING BLADE
See fi gure 10.
For best results, the mower blade must be kept sharp.
Replace a bent or damaged blade immediately.
WARNING
Only use replacement blades approved by the
manufacturer of your mower. Using a blade not
approved by the manufacturer of your mower is
hazardous and could result in serious injury, damage
your mower, and void your warranty.
WARNING
Drain the fuel fi rst before tilting the mower to replace
the blade.
1. Stop the engine and disconnect the spark plug wire.
Allow blade to come to a complete stop.
2. Turn the mower on its side (carburetor facing up).
3. Wedge a block of wood between the blade and mower
deck to prevent the blade from turning.
4. Using a 9/16-in. wrench or socket (not provided), loosen
the blade bolt by turning the bolt in a counterclockwise
direction as viewed from the bottom of the mower.
5. Remove the blade bolt, lock washer, fl at washer, and
blade.
6. Place the new blade on the shaft. Make sure it is
installed with the curved ends pointing up toward the
mower deck and not down toward the ground.
7. Replace the fl at washer, lock washer, and blade bolt
on the shaft. Finger tighten the bolt by turning in a
clockwise direction as viewed from the bottom of the
mower.
NOTE: Make certain all parts are replaced in the exact
order in which they were removed.
8. Torque the blade bolt down using a torque wrench (not
provided) to ensure the bolt is properly tightened.
9. The recommended torque for the blade bolt is 48–55
Nm (35–40 ft.lb.).
NOTE: We do not recommend sharpening the blade,
but if you do, be sure the blade is balanced before
reinstalling.
REPLACING THE WHEELS

5. Replace and secure the air fi lter cover.
NOTE: The filter should be replaced annually for best
performance.
WARNING
A leaking fuel cap is a fi re hazard and must be replaced
immediately.
The fuel cap contains a non-serviceable
fi lter and a
check valve. A clogged fuel cap will cause poor engine
performance. If performance improves when the fuel
cap is loosened, check valve may be faulty or clogged.
Replace fuel cap if required.
CHANGING THE ENGINE OIL

Change the oil while the engine oil is still warm, but not hot.
This allows the oil to drain quickly and completely.
