BLADE SHARPENING - FIGURE O

KEEP BLADE SHARP FOR BEST MOWER PERFORMANCE. A DULL BLADE DOES NOT CUT GRASS CLEANLY OR MULCH PROPERLY. USE PROPER EYE PROTECTION WHILE REMOVING, SHARPENING, AND INSTALLING BLADE. ENSURE MOWER IS UNPLUGGED. 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 be required.

REPLACE BENT OR DAMAGED BLADE IMMEDIATELY.

WHEN SHARPENING THE BLADE:

1.Make sure blade remains balanced.

2.Sharpen blade at the original cutting angle.

3.Sharpen cutting edges on both ends of blade, removing equal amounts of material from both ends.

TO SHARPEN BLADE IN A VISE:

1. Ensure mower is unplugged before removing the blade.

2.Remove blade from mower. See instructions for removing and installing blade.

3.Secure blade (O-1) in a vise (O-2).

4.Wear proper eye protection and gloves and be careful not to cut yourself.

5.Carefully file the cutting edges of the blade with a fine tooth file (O-3) or sharpening stone, maintaining the original cutting edge.

6.Check balance of blade. See instructions for blade balancing.

7.Replace blade on mower and tighten securely.

BLADE BALANCING

Check balance of blade by placing center hole in blade (P-1) over a nail or round shank screwdriver (P-2), clamped horizontally in a vise (P-3). If either end of the blade rotates downward, file that end. Blade is properly balanced when neither end drops.

STORAGE POSITION

For more compact storing the mower can be stored in an upright position, with the handle folded over as shown in figure Q. Insure mower is unplugged before storing. Loosen the two lower knobs (Q-1) and lower the handle sec- tion (Q-2) into place. Be careful not to pinch power cord. Tighten the two lower knobs and stand the mower upright so that it rests on its handle and back wheels and the blade side is against a wall.

CAUTION: Pinch point. To avoid being pinched, keep fingers away from area between handles when lowering.

LUBRICATION

No lubrication is necessary. Do not oil the wheels. They have plastic bearing surfaces which require no lubrication.
