the deck
WARNING! Always handle the blade with care, sharp edges could cause injury
USE GLOVES. Replace the blade after 50 hrs mowing or 2 yrs whichever is sooner
regardless of condition.
WARNING! If the blade is cracked or damaged replace it with a new one.
WARNING! Don’t hold the blade by hand directly.
