Product Description

This is an original manufacturer mulching blade for a lawn mower and it is sold individually. This blade measures 21-inches long, making it compatible with 21-inch decks. The blade will wear over time, it can rust, chip, warp, especially if it has hit a large object. If you notice it is tearing the grass and not cutting efficiently, this is a common symptom of a damaged or dull blade. For this DIY repair, start by disconnecting the spark plug from the boot and turning the mower on its side, making sure the air filter and carburetor are facing up. Remove the bolt and blade bell support and then remove the blade from the adapter. You may wish to lubricate the engine crankshaft and the inner surface of the blade adapter with light oil. Next, place the blade adapter on the crankshaft. Put the blade on the adapter, making sure the side of the blade that is labelled with the word bottom (or with the part number) is facing the ground while the mower is in proper position. Double check that the blade is aligned properly and seated securely on the blade adapter flange. Place the blade support on the blade and align the holes on the blade bell support with the ones on the blade. Replace the hex bolt and tighten to the manufacturers recommended torque.
