5.3 Replace the blades
WARNING: Use blades and screws of
the right type. GARDENA can only
guarantee safety when using original blades.
Only replacing the blades and reusing the
screw can result in a screw wearing during
mowing. The blades can then be propelled
from under the body and cause serious
injury.
Replace worn or damaged parts for safety reasons.
Even if the blades are intact, they should be replaced on
a regular basis for the best mowing result and low
energy usage. All 3 blades and screws must be replaced
at the same time to obtain a balanced cutting system.
Use GARDENA original blades embossed with the
crowned H-mark logotype, refer to
Warranty on page
53
.
