Care and Maintenance
1. Minimum care is required to ensure smooth operation
of your mower.
2. To avoid damage to mower or cutting blades, keep
area to be mowed free from debris.
3. For best results, regularly apply lubricant to mower’s
cutting surfaces, cutting reel axle shaft and wheels.
Sharpening the Cutting Blades:
1. Spread a thin layer of lapping compound on the front
edge of the reel blades.
2. Adjust the cutter bar so that the blade has light but rm
contact across the full width of the cutter bar.
CAUTION: Do not overtighten the adjusting screws, as this
could damage the cutter bar. Tighten both screws during nal
adjustment.
3. Turn the reel blades until the front edge of the cutter
bar blade is polished.
WARNING: Clean any grinding compound or debris from the
cutter bar blade, reel blade, pinions and pawls.
NOTE: Use industrial or valve lapping compound between 100
and 240 grit. Lubricate the axle and pinion with a light lm of
wheel bearing grease.
Cleaning and Storage:
1. Clean the exterior of the machine thoroughly using a
soft brush and cloth before storing. Do not use water,
solvents or polishes.
2. Turn the mower on its side to clean the blade area.
WARNING: Do not place hands in the mower near blades. If
grass cuttings are compacted in the blade area, remove using
a wood or plastic cleaning tool appropriate for the cleaning of
the blades.
3. Store the mower in a dry place. Do not place other
objects on top of the mower during storage.
Maintenance Tips:
Reel mowers are relatively low maintenance. For consistent
cutting follow the below instructions:
• Always keep the cutting bar properly adjusted. Refer to the
instruction manual for further directions.
• Regularly clean and lube cutting edges with light spray oil.
IMPORTANT: Reel mowers have a difcult time with tall weeds
such as dandelions which most times will cause the weeds to
bend and not cut – cut often to prevent this.
