Blade

Inspection of the blade
•
Tilt the mower with the front upwards.
•
Inspect blade for damage, cracks or excessive rust
or corrosion.
•
Check that the blade bolt is tightened.
Note: A dull blade can be sharpened! But a blade that
is worn, bent, cracked or otherwise damaged must be
replaced.
Removing the blade: See illustration 13
If you remove the blade to sharpen or replace it, you
must use a torque wrench and some heavy gloves to
protect your hands.
1. Loosen the blade bolt. Use a piece of wood to
prevent the blade from turning around.
2. Remove the bolt, washer, blade and blade holder
in that order
3. Sharpen or replace the blade.
4. Insert the blade holder, blade, washer and bolt in
that order.
5. Tighten the blade bolt with 50 Nm. Use a piece of
wood to prevent the blade from turning around.
Warning: A blade must be sharpened so it is in
100 % balance, otherwise it may cause vibrations that
could damage the engine. Damage to engine due to
faulty sharpening is not covered by warranty. We
therefore recommend letting a service center sharpen
the blade.

Storage and maintenance

Maintain your lawnmower: Check all bolts, screws,
nuts and deck. Dismount the blade and the belt plastic
cover for regular cleaning. Always make sure that the
blade is sharp. It's a good idea to take your lawn mower
to an annual service check with your authorized service
dealer. See your nearest service center at
www.texas.dk.
Storage: After use the lawnmower kept in a dry and
clean room. Clean the machine after every use. Grass
and dirt must be removed from the underside of the
deck. By tipping the mower (for cleaning) is
recommended to tilt the front up (max. 45 degrees). If
you tilt it sideways, the carburetor and air filter always
face upwards, since oil may run out and destroy the
engine. Be aware that removing the spark plug before
the mower maintenance.
Winter storage: Empty the fuel tank and let the engine
run until the gasoline in the carburetor is used up. Spark
plug removed. Remove the spark plug and add a
teaspoon of oil (engine oil) in the hole. Pull the starter to
distribute oil. Mount the spark plug, but not the spark
plug cap. Change oil as described in the section above.
Spray silicone lubrication into the cables and move
them.
Finally, clean the mower thoroughly. Dip a cloth in oil
and luricate metal parts to prevent rust.
Cleaning and lubricating of rachet wheels:

Cleaning and lubricating of all rachet wheels should be
done minimum once per year to ensure longer
durability. If no maintenance is performed, the warranty
will not cover these parts.
