Sharpening And Balancing Blades; Removing The Bioclip Plug (Combi) - Husqvarna Rider PR 17 Workshop Manual

Sharpening and Balancing Blades

!
WARNING!
Protect your hands with gloves
when working with the blades.
1. Remove the blades as described in the
previous section.
2. Fix the blade in a vice and sharpen it
with a sharpening file.
3. Balance the blade by:
• Attaching a punch, e.g. horizontally in
the vice as shown.
• Thread the hole in the centre of the
blade over the punch and make sure that
the blade is equally weighted. The
illustration shows a blade that needs to
be adjusted, it must be filed more so as
to attain the right balance (at the arrow).
• Fit in the reverse order.
!
WARNING!
If the blades are cracked, whether
caused by poor repair or other
damage, they could break while
being used. The risk increases if
the blades are poorly balanced.
