A. If the difference between A and B is greater
than 3 mm (1/8 inch), replace the blade with
a new blade; refer to

Note:
new blade, and the dimension obtained
continues to exceed 3mm (1/8 inch), the
blade spindle could be bent. Contact an
Authorized Toro Dealer for service.

Removing the Blades
The blades must be replaced if a solid object is hit, if
the blade is out of balance, or if the blade is bent. To
ensure optimum performance and continued safety
conformance of the machine, use genuine Toro
replacement blades. Replacement blades made by
other manufacturers may result in non-conformance
with safety standards.
1. Hold the blade end using a rag or thickly-padded
glove.
2. Remove the blade bolt, curved washer, and
blade from the spindle shaft
