1. Begin by tipping the mower onto its side, ensuring the air filter and carburetor are facing upwards to prevent fuel leakage.
2. Use the socket wrench to remove the blade from the mower.
3. Spray a light coat of WD-40 onto the sandpaper.
4. Lay the sandpaper flat on the wooden block, and gently run the blade across the sandpaper until a keen edge is achieved.
5. Once sharp, reattach the blade securely using the socket wrench. This entire process should take about 15 minutes, leaving your blades razor-sharp and ready for work.
Precautions and Safety Measures to Consider
Safety is paramount when working with sharp tools. Always wear gloves to protect your hands while handling the blade. Ensure that the lawn mower is completely turned off and disconnected from any power source before removing or handling the blade. Working slowly and deliberately will prevent accidental cuts and injuries.
