Lubrication
All of the bearings in this product are lubricated with a
sufficient amount of high grade lubricants for the life of the
unit under normal operation conditions. Therefore, no further
lubrication of the bearings is needed.
Ensuring a clean cut

WARNING!
The steel blades are extremely sharp.
To avoid injury, do not touch the blades while making
adjustments. Misalignment of the blades can occur, which
often results from blades that are either too loose or too tight.
This can cause an uneven cut or difficulty pushing the mower.
1. Place the mower on a flat surface. Remove the handles
and the grass collection bag. Turn the mower upside
down to expose the blades and the cutting bar.
2. Insert a piece of paper between the steel blades and the
cutting bar, then slowly turn the wheel by hand (Fig. 19).

3. All the blades should slice the paper evenly along the
entire length of the cutting bar while the wheel is turned
smoothly. Repeat this testing on the other side of the
mower.
4. If the mower cuts the paper intermittently, use the hex key
wrench provided to tighten the adjustment bolt closest
to where the intermittent cut was observed. Tighten the
bolt on the appropriate end of the cutting bar by turning
it clockwise approximately 1/8th of a turn until the steel
blade contacts the cutting bar (Fig. 20).

5. If it becomes too difficult to move the wheel by hand while
adjusting the reel blades, back off the adjustment bolt
slightly by turning it counterclockwise. Test again with a
new piece of paper to verify proper cutting action.
6. Make the same adjustment at the other end of the cutting
bar.

Maintenance Tips
Reel mowers are relatively low maintenance. For consistent
cutting, follow the below instructions:
• Always keep the cutting blades properly adjusted. Refer to
the instruction manual for further directions.
• Regularly clean and lubricate cutting edges with light spray
oil.
IMPORTANT! Reel mowers have difficulty cutting tall weeds,
such as dandelions, and will often bend, rather than cut, such
weeds. Cut often to prevent this.
Disposal
Recycling the tool
• Do not dispose of electrical appliances as unsorted
municipal waste. Use separate collection facilities.

• Contact your local government agency for information
regarding the collection systems available.
• If electrical appliances are disposed of in landfills
or dumps, hazardous substances can leak into the
groundwater and get into the food chain, damaging your
health and well-being.
• When replacing old appliances with new ones, the retailer
is legally obligated to take back your old appliance for
disposal at least free of charge.
