MOWER MAINTENANCE

Cutterblade Removal

Turn the mower on its side.
Firmly grip the end of the cutterblade (2) with a gloved hand and
remove bolt (1). When replacing ensure that the new cutterblade is the
correct way up with the turned edges facing towards the motor before
locating onto the two carrier pins. Secure the cutterblade fixing nylon
bolt and tighten to the specified torque of 20Nm.
The cutterblade has sharp edges. ALWAYS wear strong gloves to
protect your hands when working on the cutterblade. DO NOT
rotate tools towards the cutting edges to avoid the risk of injury
should the tool slip. ALWAYS use genuine Hayter replacement
parts.
The condition of the cutterblade and its mounting arrangement should
be checked regularly for signs of wear or damage. Ensure that the cut-
terblade is not bent or cracked.
A damaged cutterblade that is out of balance will vibrate excessively
and may break. DO NOT use an unbalanced cutterblade.
Regularly check that the bolt securing the cutterblade is tightened
to the specified torque of 20Nm.
Replace the cutterblade every 2 years or sooner if excessively worn or
damaged.
To prevent injury it is wise to seek assistance when turning the mower
on its side.
