Sharpening the Blade
When the blade is dull, the cut ends of the grass will
be ragged and may turn brown soon after mowing. A
dull blade also causes the battery to discharge more
quickly. When this occurs, sharpen the blade (as long
as the blade is otherwise in good condition).
For best results, remove the blade from the mower to
sharpen it.
Tools & supplies needed:
Fine-toothed file or sharpening stone
