Make sure the lawn is clear of stones, sticks, wires, and other ob ects that could damage the lawn mower blades or motor. Such ob ects could be accidentally thrown by the mower in any direction and cause serious personal in ury to the operator and others. When cutting longer grass, cut the grass in two or more passes by lowering the cutting height gradually at each pass. Never cut the grass by more than half its height. When cutting dense grass, reduce walking speed to allow for more e ective cutting and a proper collection of the clippings. Do not cut wet grass as it can stick to the lawn mower and prevent the proper discharge of grass clippings. Clean the underside of the mower deck after each use to remove grass clippings, leaves, dirt, and any other accumulated debris. Watch for holes, ruts, rocks, hidden ob ects, or bumps which can cause you to slip or trip. Tall grass can hide obstacles. Remove all ob ects such as rocks, tree limbs, etc., which could be tripped over or thrown by the blade. Always be sure of your footing. A slip and fall can cause serious personal in ury. If you feel you are losing your balance, release the start/stop switch lever immediately. Slopes are a ma or factor related to slip and fall accidents that can result in severe in ury. Mowing on slopes requires extra caution. If you feel uneasy on a slope, do not mow it. For your safety, do not attempt to mow slopes greater than 15 degrees. Do not mow near drop-o s, ditches, or embankments you could lose your footing or balance. We recommend that you mow in overlapping lines for e ective grass collection. This will keep the rows even and ensures that all the lawn is cut without missing any spots (Fig. 18). The rear roller leaves a stripe nish on the lawn and helps to prevent scalping on borders and edges (Fig. 19). NOTE: Rear roller only included in K products.

location. Remove the grass collection bag from mower if attached. Slowly turn the mower onto its side. Wedge a block of wood between the blade and the mower deck, or use safety gloves to rmly hold the blade, in order to prevent the blade from turning when the blade nut is being removed. Loosen the blade nut using a wrench or socket (not provided). Remove the blade nut anticlockwise, and then remove the blade (Fig. 20). Place the new blade on the drive shaft. Make sure it is installed with the curved ends pointing up towards the mower deck and not down towards the ground. Ensure that the blade is positioned correctly (Fig. 21). Torque the blade nut down using a torque wrench (not provided) to 25 Nm to ensure the bolt is properly tightened. NOTE: Make certain all parts are replaced in the exact order in which they were removed.
Sharpening the Blade (See Fig. 22)
For best mowing performance, the mower blade must be kept sharp. A dull blade does not cut grass evenly and overloads the motor. If your lawn has sandy soil, more frequent sharpening may be required.
Following the instructions in the Replacing the Mower Blade section to remove the mower blade. DO NOT attempt to sharpen the blade while it is attached to the mower.
sing a ne-tooth le or sharpening stone, sharpen cutting edges on both ends of the blade, removing equal amounts of material from both ends (Fig. 22).

Balancing the Blade (See Fig. 23)
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 will eventually cause damage to the mower, especially the motor.
To check the blade balance: Clamp a screwdriver horizontally in a vise as shown.
NOTE: If a vise is not available, a straight nail can also be used. Place the centre hole of blade on the screwdriver (or nail) (Fig. 23). 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.
