Wedge a block of wood between the blade and mower
deck to prevent the blade from turning.
Loosen the blade nut by turning it counterclockwise (as
viewed from bottom of mower) using a 15 mm wrench or
socket (not provided).
Remove the blade nut, spring washer, and blade.
Place the new blade on the shaft against the correspond-
ing blade posts. Ensure blade is properly seated with shaft
going through center blade hole and the two blade posts
inserted into their respective holes on the blade. Make
sure it is installed with the curved ends pointing up toward
the mower deck and not down toward the ground. When
seated properly, the straight sides should be aligned and
the blade should be flat against the blade posts.
