Mower Maintenance
Servicing the Cutting
Blades
Maintain sharp and balanced blades throughout the
cutting season, because sharp blades cut cleanly
without tearing or shredding the grass blades. Tearing
and shredding turns grass brown at the edges, which
slows growth, and increases the chance of disease.
Check the cutter blades daily for sharpness, and for
any wear or damage. File down any nicks and sharpen
the blades as necessary. If a blade is damaged or
worn, replace it immediately with a genuine Toro
replacement blade. For convenient sharpening and
replacement, keep extra blades on hand.
WARNING
A worn or damaged blade can break, and a
piece of the blade could be thrown at you
or bystanders, resulting in serious personal
injury or death.
• Inspect the blade periodically for wear or
damage.
• Replace a worn or damaged blade.
Before Inspecting or Servicing the
Blades
Park the machine on a level surface, disengage the
blade-control switch, engage the parking brake, shut
off the engine, and remove the key.
