6.13 Cutting Blades

In order to maintain the best cut, it is important that the blades are well sharpened and not damaged. Bent or
cracked blades or blades with large nicks need to be replaced. Blades must be balanced after sharpening.
To change the blades:

Stop engine, remove the key and wait for all moving parts to stop.

Engage the parking brake

Lift front of mower and secure in the raised position with jack stands.

Remove the blade bolt by turning counterclockwise.

Apply anti-seize to the blade bolt.

Install new or re-sharpened blade, start mounting bolt by hand. (Ensure the blade spacers are

reinstalled with the same qty and location)

Torque blade bolt to 70-80 ft/lbs / 95-108 Nm

6.14 Transporting

Use a heavy duty trailer or truck to transport the Stander ZK. Lock brake and block wheels. Securely fasten
the unit to the trailer or truck with straps, chains, cable or ropes.

6.15 Loading and Unloading

Use extreme caution when loading and unloading units on/off trailers or trucks. One full width ramp that
extends beyond the rear tires is recommended rather than individual ramps for each side of the unit. The
ramp should be long enough so that the angles between the ramp and the trailer or truck does not exceed 15
degrees. A steeper angle may cause the mower deck components to get caught as the unit moves from
ramp to trailer or truck. Always put the deck in the transport (up & locked) position when loading or
unloading. Never attempt to turn the mower around on the ramp. Avoid sudden acceleration when driving
up a ramp and sudden deceleration when backing down a ramp.

6.16 Lubrication

Grease with No. 2 general purpose lithium base or molybdenum base grease.

Set parking brake, stop the engine

and remove the key.

Clean grease fittings with a rag.

Connect grease gun to fitting and

pump until grease begins to ooze
out from the bearings.

Wipe off excess grease.

Do not use spray lube of any kind

on choke and/or throttle cables.

Service intervals:

First 8 hours
Every 25 hours
