CUTTERBAR
Continued.
How to sharpen and balance the cutterbar: A slightly
worn cutterbar may be re-sharpened. All cutting edges must
be sharpened equally to ensure balance. Sharpen the cutter-
bar every 25 mowing hours or more frequently if conditions
require.

Remove the cutterbar from the mower and clean using a
brush and water. Inspect the cutterbar for signs of damage.

DO NOT use a damaged or excessively worn cutterbar.
Sharpen all the cutting edges with a flat file to restore the
original cutting edge.
Ensure that the cutterbar is balanced. Use a screw driver with

a round shaft to support the cutterbar through its centre hole.
Hold the cutterbar horizontal and then release. A balanced
cutterbar will remain horizontal. If the cutterbar is not
balanced the heavy end will rotate downwards. Sharpen the
heavy end until the cutterbar is correctly balanced.
