Weared or nicked blades, if not damaged, can be sharpened in order to restore the high quality of
cutting, lower the HP requirements and reduce tractor fuel consumption.
To sharpen blades do the following:
Remove blade according to instructions described into section Blades replacement;
Clean blade, bevel washer, gua self-locking nut and mounting surface of all debris;
Put the blade in a vise and sharpen it by using a hand grinder. Grind cutting edge at the same
bevel as the original. Sharpen only the top of the cutting edge. Do not sharpen the blades to a
razor edge. The cutting edge should be approx 1 mm;
