Checking for Bent Blades
Note: The machine must be on a level surface for
the following procedure.
1. Raise the mower deck to the highest height-of-cut
position; also considered the 'transport' position.
2. While wearing thickly padded gloves or other
adequate hand protection slowly rotate blade to
be measure into a position that allows effective
measurement of the distance between the cutting
edge and the level surface the machine is on.
