Blade Sharpening
KEEP BLADE SHARP FOR BEST MOWER PERFORMANCE. A
DULL BLADE DOES NOT CUT GRASSCLEANLY.
WARNING: Use gloves and proper eye protection while
removing, sharpening, and installing blade. Ensure that
safety key and battery pack are removed.
Sharpening the blade twice during a mowing season is
usually sufficient under normal circumstances. Sand causes
the blade to dull quickly. If your lawn has sandy soil, more
frequent sharpening may berequired. REPLACE BENT OR
DAMAGED BLADEIMMEDIATELY.
When Sharpening the Blade:
• Make sure blade remainsbalanced.
• Sharpen blade at the original cuttingangle.
• Sharpen cutting edges on both ends of blade, removing
equal amounts of material from bothends.
