Replacing The Fuse; Replacing The Blade - LAWNBOY 10634 Manual Del Operador

Replacing the Fuse

Your machine comes with a fuse that protects the electric
starter. If the battery does not charge or the engine does not
run with the electric starter, the fuse may be blown. Replace
it with a 40-amp plug-in type fuse.
Important: You cannot start the machine with the
electric starter or charge the battery unless you install
the fuse.
1. Unclip both ends of the battery cover and remove it
(Figure 22).

Replacing the Blade

Service Interval: Yearly
Important: You will need a torque wrench to install the
blade properly . If you do not have a torque wrench or
are uncomfortable performing this procedure, contact
an Authorized Service Dealer.
Examine the blade whenever you run out of gasoline. If the
blade is damaged or cracked, replace it immediately. If the
blade edge is dull or nicked, have it sharpened or replace it.

WARNING
The blade is sharp; contacting the blade can result
in serious personal injury.
• Disconnect the wire from the spark plug.
• Wear gloves when servicing the blade.
1. Disconnect the spark-plug wire from the spark plug.
Refer to Preparing for Maintenance (page 11).
2. Tip the machine onto its side, with the air filter up.
3. Use a block of wood to hold the blade steady.
4. Remove the blade (turn the blade bolt
counterclockwise), saving all the mounting
hardware.
5. Install the new blade (turn the blade bolt clockwise)
and all mounting hardware (Figure 24).
Important: Position the curved ends of the blade
to point toward the machine housing.
6. Use a torque wrench to tighten the blade bolt to
60 ft-lb (82 N-m).
Important: A bolt torqued to 60 ft-lb (82 N-m) is
very tight. While holding the blade with a block
of wood, put your weight behind the ratchet or
wrench and tighten the bolt securely. This bolt is
very difficult to overtighten.
