down.
2. Place the combination wrench through the

guard.
Centre the blade on the upper flange washer,
and make sure that the blade sits flat.
Install the blade washer and cupped washer

and make sure it sits well into the gear shaft.
Install the blade retainer nut until finger-tight.
Place the combination wrench through the
hole in the upper flange washer and the hole
