Step By Step Instructions Of Changing Blades On Kubota Mower Deck
Two double-edged blades are affixed to the underside of the movable mower deck of the Kubota riding mower, which is part of the T-Series line. Every time you mow, you should either get new, sharp blades to replace the old ones with or remove the old ones and sharpen them. When you finish your weekly mowing duties, your grass will always look its best thanks to this.
Things You'll Need
- Ramps
- Wooden Block
- Socket Set
Step By Step Instructions
- A series of ramps or jack stands can be used to support the front of the Kubota. This lifts the mower's front and makes it unnecessary to remove the tractor's mowing deck.
- Detach the spark plug wire from the spark plug and engage the parking brake. By doing this, the mower's engine won't start and it won't roll down the ramps.
- Between the mower deck and the first blade, place a chunk of wood. The holding nut in the middle of the blade can be removed with the block stuck between the deck and the blade, stopping the blade from turning. To remove the middle nut, use a socket wrench.
- Put the new blade on the shaft after removing the old one. Place the block of wood between the blade and the deck, thread the retaining nut onto the shaft using your fingers, and then tighten the nut with the socket and ratchet.
- Repeat the procedure with the second blade as you get to the opposite side of the mower. Roll the mower off the ramps, reconnect the spark plug wire, and release the parking brake.
How To Remove A Troy-Bilt Riding Mower Blade?
The periodic removal of the cutting blades from a Troy-Bilt riding lawnmower is a necessary component of standard maintenance. The blade must first be taken out of the spindle underneath the mowing deck whether it has to be sharpened or replaced. To keep a Troy-Bilt mower working correctly, remove the blades at the start of each mowing season and as needed.
- Place the Troy-Bilt lawnmower in a level, flat area. Set the parking brake and put the vehicle in gear to stop rolling. To avoid inadvertent starting, remove the spark plug wire from the spark plug.
- The Troy-Bilt riding lawnmower's deck should be raised to its highest position. Wearing gloves will safeguard your hands.
- Place a piece of wood beneath the mower deck. Turn the mower blade until it touches the wood and wedges the block into place while holding the block against the inside of the deck.
- Use a 15/16-inch wrench to loosen the hex-head bolt securing the blade and washers to the spindle. Once the bolt is entirely loosened, turn it once more.
- Remove the blade assembly from the spindle, including the bolt, washers, and blade.
