- Odstranite staro rezilo: Using an appropriate wrench, loosen the blade retaining bolt (usually counter-clockwise). Remove the bolt, washer, and the old blade. Note the orientation of the old blade for correct installation of the new one.

Proper maintenance extends the life of your blade and ensures optimal cutting performance.
- Redni pregled: Before each use, inspect the blade for nicks, bends, or cracks. Replace immediately if damaged.
- Čiščenje: After each use, disconnect power and clean grass clippings and debris from the blade and underside of the mower deck.
- Ostrenje: The blade can be sharpened periodically to maintain cutting efficiency. Use a blade sharpener or file, maintaining the original blade angle. Ensure the blade remains balanced after sharpening to prevent excessive vibration. If unsure, consult a professional.
- Uravnoteženje: An unbalanced blade can cause excessive vibration, damage to the mower, and an uneven cut. After sharpening or if you suspect imbalance, check the blade's balance. A simple method is to hang the blade horizontally on a nail through its center hole; if one side drops, it's heavier and needs more material removed from that side.
- Shranjevanje: When storing the mower for extended periods, ensure the blade is clean and lightly oiled to prevent rust.
