MAINTENANCE
Cutting Blades
To attain the best mowing effect, it is important
that blades are well sharpened and not damaged.
Replace blades that have been bent or cracked
when hitting obstacles.
CAUTION! Blades are sharp. Protect
your hands with gloves and/or wrap blades with
a heavy cloth when handling.
The sharpening of blades should be
carried out by an authorized service
workshop.
Let the service workshop decide whether a blade
with large nicks can be repaired/ground or must
be replaced. Balance the blades after sharpening.
Check the blade mounts.
Blade Replacement
1. Remove blade bolt by turning it counter
clockwise.
2. Install new or resharpened blade with
stamped GRASS SIDE facing towards
ground/grass (down) or THIS SIDE UP facing
deck and cutter housing.
3. Install and tighten blade bolt securely.
4. Torque blade bolt to 90 ft-lbs (122 Nm).
IMPORTANT INFORMATION Special blade
bolt is heat treated. Replace with a Husqvarna
bolt if required. Do not use lower grade
hardware than specified.
V-belts
Check every 100 hours of operation. Check for
severe cracking and large nicks.
NOTE: The belt will show some small cracks in
normal operation.
Deck Belt
Deck Belt Removal
Park the mower on a level surface and engage
the park brake. Lower the deck into the lowest
cutting position.
1. Remove foot plate and belt shields.
2. Remove dirt or grass that may have
accumulated around the cutter housings and
entire deck surface.
3. Remove the belt guide hardware with a 1/2"
wrench and set the belt guide aside.
4. With a 1/2" breaker bar and using the square
opening in the idler arm, shift the arm counter
clockwise to relieve the tension on the belt.
5. Carefully lift the belt over the top of the cutter
housing pulleys.
6. Remove the belt from around the electric
clutch on the engine shaft.
Deck Belt Installation
NOTE: For ease in installing the deck belt, refer to
the routing decal on the cutting deck.
1. Place the belt around all the pulleys except
the center spindle pulley.
2. With a 1/2" breaker bar, shift the idler arm
counter clockwise. When there is enough
slack, slip the belt onto the center spindle
pulley.
3. Reinstall the belt guide removed in Step 3
above.
4. Check belt routing to make sure it matches
the routing decal and that the belt does not
have twists.
5. Adjust belt tension by turning the eyebolt nut
until there is approximately 7/8" -1" (22.2 mm -
25.4 mm) of threads showing outside the nut.
