Grinding The Cutterheads; Raising The Mower Off The Ground; Disposing Of Waste - Toro LT3340 Operator's Manual

Grinding the Cutterheads

It will be necessary to carry out a grinding operation to
correct cylinder spiral edges or bottom blade edges which
have become excessively rounded or distorted. Bottom
blades which are nearing the end of their wear life should be
replaced. The new blades should be ground on their holders
prior to fitting. When grinding operations are necessary it is
essential that both the cylinders and the bottom blades are
ground at the same time. The only exception to this rule is
when a new cylinder is fitted, in which case it is only necessary
to grind the bottom blade. All such grinding operations
should be carried out by your authorized dealer on a quality,
well-maintained cylinder / bottom-blade grinding machine
