Change mower blades for sharpening or replace old dull blades with new fresh blades. Tools used: 1. Hydraulic Lift 2. Impact Drill 3. 15\16 Socket 4. New blades
Hey Mark, awesome vid but I'm confused on what you're saying about aligning the blades while you reinstall them. Why does that matter when they're spinning at 32000rpm? Am I missing something?
But the video completely leaves out the sharpening process! I own a SCAG 30" walk behind. I have previously owned a Honda and a 30" TORO TIMEMASTER. One thing I have discovered is that the SCAG blade is far different than any blade I have ever owned. The SCAG blade has a specially hardened cutting edge, far harder than anything I have ever encountered, even other touted "hardened steel" blades. The SCAG blade is a SOB to sharpen! And that is a GOOD thing! You can do what you want, but for me, I will NEVER use a grinding wheel to sharpen a mower blade. The intense heat destroys the blade's "temper." I use the largest, badest, longest-handle bastard file I can find and sharpen by hand.
I align the blades as stated but after the mower runs the blades are no longer aligned. Any thoughts as to why?
How often do you actually sharpen or change your blades ?
