Hayter Mowers 401R Lawn Mower User Manual


 
How to sharpen and balance the cutterbar: A slightly
worn cutterbar may be re-sharpened. All cutting edges must
be sharpened equally to ensure balance. Sharpen the cutter-
bar every 25 mowing hours or more frequently if conditions
require. Remove the cutterbar from the mower and clean
using a brush and water. Inspect the cutterbar for signs of
damage.
WARNING - PREVENT ACCIDENTS: DO NOT use a
damaged or excessively worn cutterbar.
Sharpen all the cutting edges with a flat file to restore the
original cutting edges.
Ensure that the cutterbar is balanced. Use a screw driver
with a round shaft to support the cutterbar through its centre
hole. Hold the cutterbar horizontal and then release. A bal-
anced cutterbar will remain horizontal. If the cutterbar is
not balanced the heavy end will rotate downward. Sharpen
the heavy end until the cutterbar is correctly balanced.
