WARNING: Do not use any blades or

fastening hardware other than the

washers and nuts illustrated. These

items must be Craftsman parts and

installed as shown. Failure to use proper

parts can cause the blade to fly off and

seriously hurt you or others.

• If your unit has a plastic cover on the

threaded shaft, remove the cover.

• Remove the retaining washer from

the gearbox; leave the dust cup on

the gearbox.

Retaining

Washer _ @

Washer

Nut '_

• Place the cupped washer onto the

shaft. Make sure the cupped side of

the washer is toward the blade as

shown.

• Install the blade nut by threading it

onto the shaft counterclockwise.

NOTE: Make sure all parts are in place

as illustrated, and the blade is sand-

wiched between the dust cup and the

retaining washer. There should be no

space between the blade and the dust

cup or the retaining washer.

• Align hole in the dust cup with the

hole in the side of the gearbox by ro-

tating the blade.

• Insert a hex wrench into aligned holes.

This will keep the shaft from turning

while tightening the blade nut.

Hex Wrench _

• Tighten blade nut firmly with a wrench

while holding hex wrench in position.

• Remove the hex wrench.

• Turn blade by hand. If blade binds

against the shield or appears to be

uneven, the blade is not centered,

and you must reinstall the blade.

NOTE: To remove blade, insert hex

wrench into aligned holes. Unthread

nut and remove parts. Be sure to store

parts and instructions for future use.
