5. Move the blade by hand to align the two holes in the blade
with the two holes in the ange (Fig. 39).
6. Place a metal rod with diameter a little less than 1/4 in (6.35
mm) (e.g., a bit) into the aligned hole in the blade and the
ange to act as a stabilizer. Place another screwdriver or metal
rod with diameter a little less than 5/16 in (8 mm) into the
xing hole in the motor to act as a stabilizer (Fig. 40).
7. Use a 9/16 in (14 mm) torque wrench to tighten the bolt
clockwise. The recommended torque for the blade bolt is
36-41 ft-lb (50-55 Nm).
8. Repeat the steps with the other two blades, if needed.
9. Reassemble the deck onto the mower as directed in
“REMOVING THE MOWER DECK” in this manual.
WARNING: Ensure that the blade is properly seated and the
blade bolt is tightened to the torque specications above. Failure to
properly attach the blade could cause it to come loose and result in
possible serious personal injury.
SHARPENING THE CUTTING BLADE
WARNING: Always protect your hands by wearing heavy gloves
or wrapping the cutting edges with rags or other materials when
performing any maintenance on the mower blade. Always remove
the safety key and battery packs when servicing or transporting the
mower.
WARNING: Always wear eye protection with side shields
marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1. Failure to do so could result in
objects being thrown into your eyes resulting in possible serious
injury.
WARNING: A worn, cracked, or otherwise damaged blade can break, and pieces of the damaged blade can become
dangerous projectiles. Thrown objects can cause serious injury. Inspect the blade regularly, and do not operate the mower
with a worn or damaged blade.
NOTICE: Keep the blade sharp for best mower performance. A dull blade does not cut grass cleanly or mulch properly.
A dull blade can be sharpened, but a blade that is excessively worn, bent, cracked, or otherwise damaged must be
replaced. A worn or damaged blade can break, causing blade pieces to be thrown from the mower. If the blades are found
to be bent, take the lawn mower to an authorized EGO service center for inspection. Never attempt to straighten a bent
blade by heating, or weld a cracked or broken blade.
SHARPENING FREQUENCY
Sharpening the cutting blade twice during a mowing season is usually sufcient under normal circumstances. Sand
causes the blade to dull quickly. If your lawn has sandy soil, more frequent sharpening may be required.
