Blade Sharpening
KEEP BLADE SHARP FOR BEST MOWER PERFORMANCE. A
DULL BLADE DOES NOT CUT GRASSCLEANLY.

WARNING: Use gloves and proper eye protection
while removing, sharpening, and installing blade.
Ensure that safety key and battery pack are removed.
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
• Make sure blade remainsbalanced.
• Sharpen blade at the original cuttingangle.
• Sharpen cutting edges on both ends of blade, removing
equal amounts of material from bothends.
To Sharpen Blade in a Vise (Fig. M)
1. Be sure the bail handle is released, the blade has
stopped and safety key and battery pack are removed
before removing theblade.
2. Remove blade from mower. See instructions for
Removing and InstallingBlade.
3. Secure blade

in a vise

.
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
32
or sharpening stone, maintaining the
angle of the original cuttingedge.
6. Check balance of blade. See instructions for
BladeBalancing.
7. Replace blade on mower and tightensecurely.

Lubrication
No lubrication is necessary. Do not oil the wheels. They have
plastic bearing surfaces which require nolubrication.
Cleaning (Fig. A)

WARNING: Blow dirt and dust out of all air vents
with clean, dry air at least once a week. To minimize
the risk of eye injury, always use ANSI Z87.1 (CAN/
CSA Z94.3) approved eye protection and NIOSH/
OSHA/MSHA approved respiratory protection when
performingthisprocedure.

WARNING: Never use solvents or other harsh
chemicals for cleaning the non-metallic parts of
the tool. These chemicals may weaken the plastic
materials used in these parts. Use a cloth dampened
only with water and mild soap. Never let any liquid
get inside the tool; never immerse any part of the tool
into aliquid.
