MAINTENANCE

Cutting Blades

CAUTION! Blades are sharp. Protect
your hands with gloves and/or wind heavy cloth
around the blades before handling.
The sharpening of blades must be
carried out by an authorized service

when hitting obstacles.
side counter clockwise to lower or clockwise
to raise. Adjust until both measurements are
equal.
4. Turn any blade to align with the deck front-to-
rear. If the front blade tip does not measure
1/4" to 3/8" (6,35 mm to 9,52 mm) lower than

Clockwise raises the front of the mower,
counter clockwise will lower the front. Adjust
nuts until rear of mower deck is positioned
level to 1/8" higher in the rear than the side-to-
side measurement.
NOTE: This will position the mower deck in a
standard measurement position. Depending on
the type of grass being mowed or environmental
conditions, additional adjustments may be
required to get the desired cut.

Anti-scalp Rollers

Anti-scalp rollers are correctly adjusted when
they are slightly off of the ground when the deck
is at the desired cutting height in the operating
position. Anti-scalp rollers keep the deck in the
proper position to help prevent scalping in most
terrain conditions.
The anti-scalp rollers can be set in three
positions:
Upper —1-1/2" to 2-1/2" (38 mm -63 mm) grass
Middle —2-1/2" to 4" (63 mm -102 mm) grass
Lower — 4" to 6" (102 mm -152 mm) grass.
The rollers must be approximately 1/4" from the
ground.
Let the service workshop decide if a blade with
large nicks can be repaired/ground or must be
replaced. Balance the blades after sharpening.
Check the blade mounts.
Blade replacement

clockwise.
2. Install new or resharpened blade with
stamped GRASS SIDE facing towards
