When cleaning the underside of the mower, always tilt handle back to ground level
so the front wheels are off the ground and spark plug is pointing to the sky
(4 stroke
engined mowers).
• Tilting in other directions can cause the oil to contaminate the fuel & damage airfilter
causing starting difficulties (4 stroke models).
• To prevent chassis corrosion, the underside of your mower should be cleaned
immediately after mowing an area which has been recently dressed with sulphate
of ammonia or fertiliser.
•
After cleaning, run the engine briefly to dry off excess moisture before storing.

• Stop the engine and disconnect the spark plug lead before fitting new blades.
Assembly:
Fit as per the drawing remembering to push the head of the bolt into the
blade disc. (this will stop the bolt head from turning). Ensure correct order of assembly.
DO NOT lay mower on side 4 stroke models.
• We recommend changing blades, bolts, nuts and washers as a set. Metal fatigue and
damage may occur which may not be visible to the operator. Always replace all blades
to ensure correct engine balance, reducing vibration and wear. Tighten nuts on blade
bolts to 14-19 Nm
(Newton Metres) or 10-14 ft lbs.
• Always turn the nut to check tightness, not the bolt.
Use only genuine replacement parts made and guaranteed by Bushranger. Insist
on

damage or injury.
