Blade Installation
Use a genuine Honda replacement blade or high quality equivalent.
1. Clean any dirt and grass from around the blade shaft and inside
the deck.
2. Install the blade with the upturned edges of the blade toward the
mower deck. Note the right side blade has a more pronounced lift
angle. The right side high-lift blade must be installed on the right
side spindle. When using the optional mulching kit, the two
mulching blades are identical and may be installed on either
spindle.
