STORING AND MAINTENANCE
For safety reasons we recommend that the blade only be changed by someone qualified
and authorized to do so.
Hold the blade and unscrew the blade bolt counterclockwise using a spanner wrench.
Remove the washer and the blade.
Fit a new blade or re-sharpen the blade, locate the blade on the two studs on the blade
flan and then fix the washer and bolts. Make sure the blade is correctly located, and then
firmly tighten the bolt with 45~50N·m. Do not over tighten.

Storing the lawnmower for short periods
The lawnmower can be stored for short periods of time (less than 15 days) without
performing any storage maintenance. Before placing the lawnmower into storage always
carry out the following:
1. Allow the engine to fully cool.
2. Ensure the grass bag is empty.
3. Clean all debris from under the mower deck.
4. Store the lawnmower on flat and level surface with the mower upright.
5. Store in a safe place which is not accessible by children or people who are not
familiar with operation.
