Spindle Inspection

Spindles are equipped with maintenance free roller bearings. Inspect blade
spindles by first loosening the two mower blade drive belts. Wearing
protective gloves, and one at a time, grasp each blade and attempt to
move it from side to side. If any free play is noted, it is necessary to have
the spindle serviced by a qualified technician.
NOTE: Spindle nut is left-hand thread. Nut torque is 60 ft-lb.
