BLADE SHARPENING
KEEP BLADE SHARP FOR BEST MOWER

CUT GRASS CLEANLY OR MULCH PROPERLY.
WEAR PROPER EYE PROTECTION WHILE
REMOVING, SHARPENING, AND INSTALLING
BLADE ENSURE THAT SAFETY KEY IS
REMOVED.

season is usually sufficient under normal

quickly. If your lawn has sandy soil, more
frequent sharpening may be required.
