CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Replacing the cutting blade
WARNING
Always protect your hands by wearing heavy gloves and/or wrapping the cutting edges with rags or
other materials when performing any maintenance on the blades. Always remove the battery when
servicing or transporting the mower.
Use only a Kobalt replacement blade (Item #C3200773-00 sold separately).
• Remove battery.
• While wearing leather padded gloves, wedge a block of
wood between the blade and the mower deck in order
to prevent the blade from turning when the bolt is being
removed.
• Using an adjustable wrench or 17mm socket (not
included), loosen the blade bolt (S), spacer (U) and
remove the blade (T). Turn the bolt counterclockwise to
loosen it and clockwise to tighten it.
• Remove the bolt and the blade.
• To re-install the blade, position the blade with the
cutting edges toward the ground. Assemble the bolt as
shown. Using a socket or wrench, turn the blade bolt
"CLOCKWISE" in order to secure the blade.
• Recommended tightening torque:
24-27 ft-lbs (33-37 Nm).
Cleaning the mower
WARNING
• In order to reduce the risk of electric shock, do not expose the mower to water. The underside of
the mower deck should be cleaned after each use, because grass clippings, leaves, dirt, and other
debris will accumulate, which will cause rust and corrosion.
• Remove any build-up of grass and leaves on or around the motor cover (do not use water).
Occasionally wipe the mower clean with a dry cloth. If debris builds up on the underside of the
mower during use, stop the motor, remove the battery, and then tilt the mower on its side, and
scrape it clean using an appropriate tool.
