5. Replace all 4 blades to
ensure a smooth even cut.
By replacing the washer, then

securing the blade firmly, (25
- 30Nm) repeat this for the
other 3 blades.
6. Replace the blade disc and
retighten the central blade
bolt tightly (50 - 59Nm).
Note. Use a wooden block to stop the blade from turning.
The 4 blades should be tightened fully but check to ensure
they can still swing back if they were to hit a solid object.
Where required tighten the bolts with a torque wrench,
the centre disc blade bolt torque: 50 - 59Nm and the four
blades torque: 25 - 30Nm.
If you do not have a torque wrench ask a mower service
dealer to tighten the blade bolts before you use the
mower.
WARNING. If the blade bolts are not tightened correctly
they could loosen and/or come out and it would be
possible for the blades to fly off while you are operating
the mower.

Stratton instruction manual.
