• Place the blade bell support over the blade, aligning the tabs in the holes of the blade with the hole in the bell
support and insert the hex bolt through the blade assembly. Refer to Figure 14 for the correct order of
assembly.
• Tighten the hex bolt according to the blade mounting torque mentioned below.
BLADE MOUNTING TORQUE
Center Bolt: 450 in. tbs. min., 600 in. Ibs. max.;
To ensure safe operation of your unit, all nuts and bolts must be checked periodically for correct tightness.
DECK
The underside of the mower deck should be cleaned after each use to prevent a buildup of grass clippings, leaves,
dirt or other matter. If this debris is allowed to accumulate, it will invite rust and corrosion, and may cause an uneven
discharge of grass clippings.
The deck may be cleaned by tilting the mower and scraping clean with a suitable tool (make certain the spark plug
wire is disconnected, the fuel tank is empty or sealed, and the air filter and carburetor are away from the ground).
