BLADE REMOVAL
To change blades, it may be best to use a piece
of wood positioned between the blade and
mowing deck to keep the blade from turning. Use
a 15/16" socket and impact wrench capable of
and output torque of at least 220 ft-lbs. A box
wrench and extension can be used, though
component damage potential may be increased.
A 3/4" wrench can be used on the spindle shaft
above the blade to keep the shaft from turning.
The bolt has right-handed threads.
Re-torque the blade bolts to 90-110 lbs. upon re-
installation.
The blade spindles contain a sealed ball bearing inside
the top and bottom of the spindle. The bearings are
replaceable for a more cost-effective repair. Factors such
as water introduction into the bearing will have a major
impact on bearing life.
