BLADE REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
Two, 1/2” X 1 3/4” grade 5 bolts with lockwashers and nuts hold blade to blade
spindle support bar. When changing blades, be sure that these fasteners are in good
condition so they will not come loose during operation.
BLADE SHARPENING

- When sharpening blades be sure to balance them. Unbalanced
blades will cause excessive vibration, which can damage blade spindle bearings.
Vibration may also cause structural cracks in spindle housing.
