Answer/comment
Replace when worn to 1 1/2" from the cutting edge to the
back edge.
Sharpen blade from top only. Maintain a flat lower surface.
Sharpen sides of blade from outside only.
If the operator tries to cut deeper than 2 1/2", pivoting the
machine back on its rear wheels while cutting can cause
machine to cut too deeply.
Make sure the blade is sharp.,
Moisture, oil or grease on the belt will cause it to slip.
Replace with a Husqvarna belt.
Tension can be increased by tightening the Cable Tension
Nut.
Run the machine with the blade engaged until the belt
stretches.
Be sure the correct Husqvarna belt is being used. If not,
replace with a Husqvarna belt. (Very Important!).
