To clean the grass catcher
Pores in cloth grass catchers can become filled
with dirt and dust during operation. This causes
the grass catcher to collect less grass. To
prevent this, regularly hose the grass catcher off
with water and let dry before using.
Examine the grass catcher frequently for wear or
deterioration. Replace if necessary.
To examine the door and deflector
The rear door and rear deflector are attached
between the rear wheels of the product. They

the direction of the mow position of the operator.

are not damaged.

deflector

To sharpen and balance the blade
For best results, keep the blade sharp. Replace a
bent or damaged blade.

damage to your hands .
1. Sharpen the blade with a file or on a grinding
wheel. Do not sharpen the blade when it is
installed on the product.
CAUTION: We do not recommend
that you sharpen the blade. If you do,
make sure that the blade is
balanced. A blade that is not
balanced can cause damage to the
product or motor.
2. Put a straight nail in a piece of wood or a wall.
Make sure you can see 2-3 cm of the nail.
3. Put the center hole of the blade on the head of
the nail. If the blade is balanced, it must stay in a
horizontal position. If one of the two ends of the
blade moves down, sharpen the heavy end until
the blade is balanced.
To replace the blade
CAUTION: Use gloves, and/or wind the
blade with a heavy cloth, to prevent
injury to your hands.
