Good To Know

Q: How often should deck blades be replaced? A: Replace them when the cutting edge is visibly nicked, rounded, or out of balance, or at the start of each mowing season for best cut quality. Sharpening can extend life but replacement is recommended once the blade is bent or deeply worn.

Q: Do both blades need to be replaced together? A: Yes, replacing the full set at once keeps the deck balanced and produces a more even cut. Mixing a new blade with an old one can cause vibration and an uneven cut path.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
