Yard force YF22-3N1SPVS-SC Manual De Uso Y Cuidado página 21

WARNING! You will need garden gloves (not provided) and a wrench (not provided) to remove the
blade.
NOTE! Don't invert the mower. Tip it slightly towards the oil filler pipe and reach under the deck.
WARNING! Always handle the blade with care; sharp edges could cause injury. USE GLOVES.
Replace your metal blade after 50 hours mowing or 2 years, 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.
NOTE! Maintain the sharpness of the blade when cutting grass. If the blade has worn excessively
and become pitted and blunt, it should be replaced or sharpened. The sharpness of the blade will
affect the performance of the lawn mower.
For safety reasons we recommend that the blade only be changed by someone qualified and authorized to
do so.
Hold the blade and unscrew the blade bolt counter-clockwise using a wrench. Remove the washer and the
blade.
Fit a new blade or re-sharpen the blade. Place the blade on the two studs on the blade flange and then
replace the washer and bolts. Make sure the blade is correctly located, and then firmly tighten the bolt. Do
not over tighten. The up turn of the blade must project into the motor compartment.
STORING THE LAWN MOWER FOR SHORT PERIODS
The lawn mower can be stored for short periods of time (less than 15 days) without performing any storage
maintenance. Before placing the lawn mower into storage always do the following:
1. Allow the engine to fully cool.
2. Ensure the grass bag is empty.
3. Clean all debris from under the mower deck.
4. Store the lawn mower on a flat and level surface with the mower upright.
5. Store in a safe place which is not accessible by children or people who are not familiar with the lawn
mower's operation.
