Replacing the blade

For safety reasons you should only ever have your blade sharpened, balanced and mounted by an
authorised service workshop. For optimum results it is recommended that the blade be inspected
once a year.
WARNING! Before you remove the grass collection bag, stop the engine and wait until the
blade stops completely.
WARNING! You will need garden gloves (not provided) and a wrench (not provided) to
remove the blade.
NOTE! Don't invert the mower. Tip it slightly towards the oil filler pipe and reach under the
deck.
WARNING! Always handle the blade with care; sharp edges could cause injury. USE
GLOVES. Replace your metal blade after 50 hrs mowing or 2 years whichever is sooner
regardless of condition.
WARNING! If the blade is cracked or damaged replace it with a new one.
WARNING! Don't hold the blade by hand directly.
NOTE! Maintain the sharpness of the blade when cutting grass. If the blade has worn
excessively and become pitted and blunt, it should be replaced or sharpened. The
sharpness of the blade will affect the performance of the lawnmower.
For safety reasons we recommend that the blade only be changed by someone qualified and
authorised to do so.
Hold the blade and unscrew the blade bolt counter-clockwise using a wrench. Remove the washer
and the blade.
Fit a new blade or re-sharpen the blade. Place
the blade on the two studs on the blade flange and
then replace the washer and bolts. Make sure the
blade is correctly located, and then firmly tighten
the bolt (tightening torque 40–45 Nm). Do not over
tighten.
