CAUTION

POTENTIAL HAZARD

Operating a mower deck with loose or weakened

blade bolts can be dangerous.

WHAT CAN HAPPEN

A loose or weakened blade bolt could allow a blade

rotating at a high speed to come out from under the
deck, causing serious injury or property damage.

HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD

Replace the blade bolt after striking a foreign object.

(Use only Exmark replacement parts PN 103-0862 –
blade bolt and PN 103-0865 – spring disk washer).

DO NOT lubricate the threads of the bolt or spindle

before assembly.

Torque the blade bolt to 115-120 ft-lbs. (156-163 N-m).
