A slightly worn blade may be re-
sharpened. Both blade edges must be
sharpened equally to ensure balance.
Sharpen the blade every 25 mowing
hours or more frequently if conditions
require. Remove the blade from the
mower and clean using a brush and
water. Inspect the blade for signs of
damage.
Sharpen both cutting edges with a fl at
fi le to restore performance.
Ensure that the blade is balanced. Use
a screw driver with a round shaft to
support the blade through its centre
hole. Hold the blade horizontal and then
release. A balanced blade will remain
horizontal.
If the blade is not balanced the heavy
end will rotate downwards. Sharpen the
heavy end until the blade is correctly
balanced.
6. Storage
Caution! Petrol left in the fuel tank over
the winter period will become stale and
the engine will not start.
For long term storage and at the end
of the season, the petrol tank should
be drained.
Ensure that the engine is cold before
draining the tank.
Allow the petrol
to drain into an appropriate
container. Start the engine again, and wait
till the engine stops.
Do not store petrol for long periods of time.
Dispose of excess petrol in an environmentally
safe way. Your local recycling centre can advise
you on the best method of disposal. Make sure
before storing it in a clean dry place.
