The use of parts that do not meet the original equipment
specifications may lead to improper performance of the lawn
mower, may compromise operator safety, and will void the
manufacturer's warranty.
1. Disconnect the electrical supply to the lawn mower.
2. Turn the lawn mower on its side to expose the underside
of the blade housing.
3. Wear heavy-duty gloves, or use a cloth to grip the blade.
4.
To remove the blade bolt, hold the blade firmly by one
hand, and use the supplied spanner wrench to loosen the
blade bolt by turning it counterclockwise (Fig. 16).
5. Fit the new blade, the washer and the bolt back on
following the same steps in reverse order (Fig. 17).
Storage
Follow the steps below to prepare the lawn mower for storage:
1. Disconnect the power supply to the lawn mower.
2. Clean the lawn mower with a damp cloth or hand brush.
3. Inspect the lawn mower carefully for worn, loose, or
damaged parts. Check connections and screws and
tighten if necessary. Pay special attention to the mower
blade and replace/sharpen if it shows signs of wear. Refer
to the Maintenance section.
4. Store the lawn mower indoors in a dry, clean, and cool
area out of the reach of children. Do not store the unit next
to corrosive materials, such as fertilizer and rock salt.
5. Wipe the extension cord to remove any foreign
substances, such as oil or stains. Replace the extension
cord immediately if it is cut or damaged in any way.
6. Wind the cord in a series of equal loops to prevent it
from tangling.
7. Do not cover the lawn mower with a solid plastic sheet.
Plastic coverings trap moisture around the lawn mower,
which can damage the unit.
