 SHARPENING THE BLADES

The mowing blades must be sharp, statically balanced and straight. Blunt, incorrectly sharpened or
damaged mowing blades cause grass to be torn out of the ground, damage to lawns and mediocre
collection of mowed grass in the grass catcher.
If the blades are merely blunt and do not exhibit any other damage, then they may be sharpened. After
sharpening the pair of blades must be balanced. Balancing will prevent vibrations of the mowing deck.
The weight difference between the individual blades may not exceed 2g. During replacement
always also check the wear on the distance sleeves and mounting bolts, ensuring they are in perfect
condition. If serious damage to the mowing deck is discovered it is necessary to have the machine
thoroughly inspected at an authorised service centre.
Always use a new, unused M16 lock nut. Never reuse a lock nut that has already
been used, because safe attachment of the blade cannot be guaranteed!
Do not repair a blade that is deformed or otherwise damaged, replace it
immediately.
Whenever handling the mowing blades, always use heavy-duty work gloves.
