_ILWARNING! When removing, inspect the
biade carefully. ]f blade is bent or damaged, replace
immediately with a new blade. Failure to replace
a bent or damaged blade could cause an accident
resulting in possible sedous injury.
,, Using a fine-tooth file or stone, sharpen cutting
edges on both ends of the blade, removing equal
amounts of material from both ends.
BALANCING THE BLADE
See Figure 15.
When sharpening, care should be taken to keep the
blade balanced. An unbalanced blade will cause
excessive vibration when the mower is running. This
vibration wil! eventually cause damage to the mower,
especia{iy the motor.
TO check the blade balance:
• Clamp a screwdriver horizontally in a vise as
shown.
NOTE: ]f a vise is not available, a straight nail driven
into the side of a work bench can also be used.
mPlace the center hole of blade on the screwdriver (or
nail) shank.
• If blade is balanced, it will remain in a horizontal
position. If either end of the blade drops downward,
sharpen the heavy side until the blade is balanced.
STORING THE MOWER
See Figures I6.
• Remove the switch key and store in a secure
location out of the reach of children.
• Turn mower on its side and clean grass clippings
that have accumulated on the underside of the mower
deck.
,, Wipe the mower clean with a dry cloth.
• Check all nuts, bolts, knobs, screws, fasteners, etc.,
for tightness.
• Inspect moving parts for damage, breakage, and
wear. Have repairs made on any damaged or missing
parts.
• Store mower indoors in a dean, dry place out of the
reach of children.
