MAINTENANCE
Cleaning
Regular cleaning, especially below the mower
deck, will increase the machine’s life-span. Make
it a habit to clean the machine directly after use
(after it is cooled), before the debris sticks.
Do not spray water on the top of the mower
deck. Use compressed air to clean the top side
of mower deck. Regularly clean the underside of
the deck with normal water pressure. Do not use
a high pressure washer or steam cleaner. Avoid
spraying engine and electrical components with
water.
For models tted with a cleanout port, attach the
quick connect (from the accessory packet) to any
garden hose. After mowing, snap the hose to the
cleanout port and turn on water supply.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION Special blade
bolt is heat treated. Replace with a Husqvarna
bolt if required. Do not use lower grade
hardware than specied.
Cutting Blades
For the best mowing results, it is important that
blades are correctly sharpened and not damaged.
Replace blades that have been bent or cracked
when hitting obstacles.
Let the service workshop decide if a blade with
large nicks can be repaired/ground or must be
replaced. Balance the blades after sharpening.
Check the blade mounts.
Blade replacement
1. Remove blade bolt by turning counter
clockwise.
2. Install new or resharpened blade with
stamped GRASS SIDE facing towards
ground/grass (down) or THIS SIDE UP facing
deck and cutter housing.
3. Seat the blade's opening rmly onto the cutter
housing.
4. Tighten blade bolt securely.

CAUTION! Blades are sharp.
Protect your hands with gloves
and/or wind heavy cloth around the
blades before handling.
The sharpening of blades must
be carried out by an authorized
service workshop.
Restart the mower and engage the blades to use
the spinning action to clean away debris. Make
sure the hose is away from the mower blades.
