Place a block of wood between the center deck housing 

2. 

baffle and the cutting blade to act as a stabilizer. 

See Fig. 7-9.

Remove the hex flange nut that secures the blade to the 

3. 

spindle assembly. See Fig. 7-9.
To properly sharpen the cutting blades, remove equal 

4. 

amounts of metal from both ends of the blades along the 

cutting edges, parallel to the trailing edge, at a 25°- 30° 

angle. Always grind each cutting blade edge equally to 

maintain proper blade balance. See Fig. 7-10.

If the cutting edge of the blade has 

previously been sharpened, or if any metal 

separation is present, replace the blades with new 

ones.

A poorly balanced blade will cause 

excessive vibration, may cause damage to the 

tractor and/or result in personal injury.

Test the blade’s balance using a blade balancer. Grind 

5. 

metal from the heavy side until it balances evenly.
NOTE: When replacing the blade, be sure to install the 

blade with the side of the blade marked ‘‘Bottom’’ (or with 

a part number stamped in it) facing the ground when the 

mower is in the operating position.

Use a torque wrench to tighten the 

blade spindle hex flange nut to between 70 ft-lbs 

and 90 ft-lbs.
