- How to replace lawn mower blades on Honda HRN216 part # HRN216VKA
Hey guys, this is one of my first videos I’m uploading so hopefully I get better at making them. I hope to post more soon. - Ігри
Thank you for telling me the size of the bolts! The last person’s video that I watched, didn’t tell me the size!
No problem! I always like being detailed because the thing I hate the most in how to do tutorials is people missing key components in how to do the procedure!
Great video, my Honda blades didn't come with great directions. Your video was perfect. Thanks.
Thank you for the kind words! Glad I was able to help!
Great video... you went at the right speed for me. Thanks!
Thank you! I appreciate the feedback. Glad I was able to help!
Great job. I appreciate you. Did a great job! I am sure someone already mentioned it but obviously better audio.
Thank you! I appreciate the kind words. And yeah I’m thinking of updating it with better audio. I couldn’t find my mic for this video so my apologies for the bad audio.
Great job buddy and Great attitude
Thank you!
Nicely done ! Remember safety first !unplug that spark plug, the mower can start really easy especially if it's in top running condition!
Thank you! And thank you for the advice, I’m for sure will be doing that next time!
Thanks from Grand Junction, Colorado. Good first try Alexy! I learned several things I didn't know.
Thank you Lynn! I’m glad my video helped you! And nice, I really want to visit Colorado, it looks beautiful.
Mist the most important step ! .............disconnect the spark plug ! Unless you like risking your fingers and hands
Yes I agree, skipped over that part my bad! Safety always comes first ✅
Great insight!
Interesting informative video 😮
Great job! Thank you !
Thank you for the kind words! And no problem, I’m glad you enjoyed the video!
Good job
Thank you! I appreciate it.
Thank you my guy
No problem! Glad I was able to help.
Thank you make some more. Oil change, spark plug, air filter
I definitely will! I did film how to do those things but I might re film it so it has better audio and post them on here. Thank you for watching!
Great video man. Do you replace these every year? Do you ever just pay somewhere to have them sharpened? Home depot sells these for $38 so not too bad, but could probably save some money just hving them sharpened, not sure...Trying to plan what I'm gonna do
This was the first time replacing them. It's my parent's mower and I think we've had this mower for around 2 years now. I decided to just replace them because the blades had been abused quite a lot and had some chips in the blade's edge. I'm pretty sure sharpening them frequently would be cheaper, especially if you do it yourself. I didn't want to buy a sharpening kit and blade balancer yet, so I decided to just replace them. But now that it has a new pair of blades I might buy a sharpening kit and keep them sharp from here on out, and replace them when they get too rough or bent.
👍
Wow
Talk into the mic please. If u wash the bottom of deck real well after u mow, let it dry for a couple of days, & spray with Fluid Film & let it soak a couple of days, it'll be protected AND grass clippings don't stick! 🤔 Gave u a 👍'd
Appreciate the tips, for sure going to try the fluid film so that the deck doesn’t get grass clippings all stuck to it. And yeah my bad, the audio quality wasn’t the greatest. I couldn’t find my wireless mic so that it would pick up my voice better. But I found it now so the audio quality will be better in the next videos.
Use torque wrench to tighten to specs
Blade bolt torque: 36 ~ 43 ft-lb; 5.0 ~ 6.0 kg-m (49 ~ 59 N·m)
For reference 36 ftlbs is about 3 ugga duggas
Take the blades off, sharpen them with a file, clean them up and put them back on. The blade should probably last the life of the mower.
I keep a second set so I can use throughout the week and sharpen the other when it's convenient
I found a c clamp was best way to keep from spinning. I know, no one asked.
Why not sharpen? Too damaged?
Yeah, they were around 2 years old and pretty beat up. Next time I will buy a blade sharpener and sharpen them instead so they last me longer.
Gotcha! Thanks
@@sheldonnorton9035 No problem!

Disconnect the spark plug first!
Man, I removed the blades on tbis mower to sharpen. Ended up taking ALL THREE BOLTS out including the middle one!!! Now I cant get it back in, it only screws in about a third of the way, so I can't get the blades back on!! Any clue what to do!? You'd think they would have used a different bolt/different size if you weren't needing to remove it!!! I'm so mad. Thanks in advance if you or anyone knows.
I wish I could be more helpful, but I have no experience in having that issue. I hope you figured it out, my apologies for not being able to help. I hope you were able to get it fixed though!
@@alexyhuerta10 Thanks for the reply!!! I have someone mowing for me right now, but I am going to try and wrestle with that center bolt again soon so I can mow if I want to. I do remember it took a great deal of force to get it off so I am going to wrestle it again and see if I can torque it BACK ON by hand to 40ish. I'll try to remember to post back afterwards for anyone else experiencing this issue. I am an idiot for not paying more attention to the instructions BUT, it's still VERY POOR engineering to have 3 bolts, THE SAME SIZE, where the middle one APPEARS to have to come off to get the blades off. It's very misleading and like...WHY would that make it to production like that!!!
UPDATE#1: After MORE wrestling, sweating, and ALOT of cussing. The middle bolt WILL NOT go back in more than 25% of the way. Nothing stopping it visually...it's strange. In fact, I got it so tight now it turns without the belt when trying to torque it on or off!!! SO even though I got it to where I was DETERMINED to use as much muscle and leverage as needed...it's stuck. SO MAD. I used this mower for 1 year....this happened the first time I took the blades off. F U HONDA!!!!! 🤡
