Inspecting the Blades
Service Interval: Before each use or daily—Check the
cutting blades.
1. Inspect the cutting edges ( Figure 44 ). If the edges
are not sharp or have nicks, remove and sharpen the
blades; refer to
(page ) .
2. Inspect the blades, especially the curved area ( Figure
44 ). If you notice any damage, wear, or a slot forming
in this area (item 3 or 4 in Figure 44 ), immediately
install a new blade.

Checking for Bent Blades
Note:
The machine must be on a level surface for the
following procedure.
1. Raise the mower deck to the highest height-of-cut
position; also considered the 'transport' position.
2. While wearing thickly padded gloves or other adequate
hand protection slowly rotate blade to be measured
into a position that allows effective measurement of the
distance between the cutting edge and the level surface
the machine is on (
Figure 45 ).
