WARNING
When removing 
the cutting blade 
for sharpening or 
replacement, protect 
your hands with a 
pair of heavy gloves 
or use a heavy rag to 
hold the blade.
An unbalanced blade 
will cause excessive 
vibration when rotat-
ing at high speeds. It 
may cause damage 
to mower, and could 
break causing per-
sonal injury.

Blade Care
WARNING: When removing the 
cutting blade for sharpening or 
replacement, protect your hands 
with a pair of heavy gloves or use 
a heavy rag to hold the blade.
Periodically inspect the blade adapter for 
cracks, especially if you strike a foreign object. 
Replace when necessary. Follow the steps 
below for blade service:
1.  Disconnect spark plug wire from spark plug.
2. Tip mower as specified in separate engine 
manual. If it does not specify turn mower on 
its side making sure that the air filter and the 
carburetor are up.
3. Remove the bolt and the blade bell support 
which hold the blade and the blade adapter 
to the engine crankshaft. See Figure 11.
4. Remove blade and adapter from the crank-
shaft.
5. The blade may be resharpened by removing 
it and either grinding or filing the cutting edge 
keeping as close to the original bevel as 
possible. Do not attempt to sharpen the blade 
while it is still on the mower.
6. It is 
extremely important that each cutting 
edge receives an equal amount of grinding to 
prevent an unbalanced blade.
NOTE: Improper blade balance will result in 
excessive vibration causing eventual damage to 
the engine and mower.  Be sure to carefully bal-
ance blade after sharpening. Possible damage 
resulting from blade unbalance condition is not 
the responsibility of the manufacturer.
NOTE: Always remove blade from the adapter 
for testing balance. 
7.  The blade can be tested for balance by 
balancing it on a round shaft screwdriver. 
Remove metal from the heavy side until it 
balances evenly.
8. Before reassembling the blade and the blade 
adapter to the unit, lubricate the engine 
crankshaft and the inner surface of the blade 
adapter with light oil. 
Cutting grass in sandy 
soil condition causes 
abrasive wear to the 
blade.
9. Install the blade adapter on the crankshaft 
with the “star” away from the engine. See 
Figure 11. Place the blade with the side 
marked “bottom” (or with part number) facing 
away from the adapter. Align the blade bell 
support over the blade with the tabs in the 
holes of the blade and insert the hex bolt.
10. Tighten the hex bolt to the torque listed 
below: 
Blade Mounting Torque
Center Bolt 450 in. lb. min., 600 in.lb. max.
To insure safe operation of your unit, ALL nuts 
and bolts must be checked periodically for 
correct tightness. 
Off-Season Storage
The following steps should be taken to prepare 
your lawn mower for storage.
1.  Clean and lubricate mower thoroughly as 
described in the lubrication instructions.
2. We do not recommend the use of a pressure 
washer or garden hose to clean your unit.
3. Refer to engine manual for correct engine  
storage instructions.
4. Coat mower’s cutting blade with chassis 
grease to prevent rusting.
5. Store mower in a dry, clean area. Do not 
store next to corrosive materials, such as 
fertilizer.
NOTE: When storing any type of power equip-
ment in a poorly ventilated or metal storage 
shed, care should be taken to rust-proof the 
equipment. Using a light oil or silicone, coat the 
equipment, especially cables and all moving 
parts of your lawn mower before storage.
