SECTION 2: MOWER SAFETY GUIDELINES
Never allow untrained people to operate this machine. It is the owner’s responsibility to get training and see to it that anyone who has
permission to use your machine receives the proper training. Do not mow around people. The factory discharge chute is designed
to deflect debris downward, but it could be possible for debris to be thrown in a way that can cause damage to people or property.
Seek additional training when possible to learn more about safety techniques and practices. This cutting machine is capable of
amputating hands and feet and throwing objects. Failure to observe the following safety instructions could result
in serious injury or death.
GENERAL OPERATION
2.1 Read, understand, and follow all instructions on the machine and in the manual before starting.
2.2 Do not put hands or feet near rotating parts or under the machine. Keep clear of the discharge opening at all times.
2.3 Always remain seated while operating the machine. If the machine is equipped with Roll Over Protection (ROPs), always buckle
your seat belt.
2.4 Only allow responsible adults who are familiar with the instructions to operate this machine.
2.5 Clear the area of objects such as rocks, wire, toys, etc., which could be thrown by the blades.
2.6 Always maintain a safe distance from people and pets just prior to, and during, operation. Stop the machine if anyone enters the area.
2.7 Never carry passengers.
2.8 Do not mow in reverse unless absolutely necessary. Always look down and behind before and while backing.
2.9 Never direct discharged material toward anyone. Avoid discharging material against a wall or obstruction as material may
ricochet back toward the operator. Stop the blades when crossing gravel surfaces.
2.10 Never operate the machine without the discharge chute, grass catcher, or other safety devices correctly in place and functioning
properly.
2.11 Slow down before turning.
2.12 Always disengage blades, place steering controls in neutral, engage parking brake, and remove ignition key when leaving
operators seat. Never leave a running machine unattended.
2.13 Disengage blades when not mowing. Shut off engine and wait for all parts to come to a complete stop before cleaning the
machine, inspecting the machine for damage, removing the grass catcher, or unclogging the discharge guard.
2.14 Always operate machine in daylight or with adequate working lights.
2.15 Do not operate the machine while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
2.16 Watch for traffic when operating near or crossing roadways.
2.17 Always wear eye protection when operating or servicing the machine.
2.18 Always wear ear protection, such as earplugs, while mowing.
2.19 Use extra care when loading or unloading the machine into a trailer or truck.
2.20 Be alert of surroundings. Watch for rocks, stumps, mounds, depressions, and low hanging limbs or objects that could be
potentially hazardous while mowing.
2.21 Data indicates that operators 60 years of age and above are involved in a large percentage of riding mower related injuries.
These operators should periodically evaluate their ability to operate the riding mower safely enough to protect themselves and
others from serious injury.

SLOPE OPERATION
Slopes are a major factor related to loss of control and tip over accidents, which can result in severe injury or death. Operation on all
slopes requires extra caution. If you cannot back up the slope, or you feel uneasy on it, do not mow it.
2.22 Mow up and down slopes, not across.
2.23 Watch for holes, ruts, bumps, rocks, or other hidden objects that tall grass can obscure. Uneven terrain could overturn the machine.
2.24 Choose a low ground spend when operating the machine on a slope.
2.25 Do not mow on wet grass, the tires may lose traction.
2.26 Do not attempt to coast down a slope in the neutral position.
2.27 Avoid starting, stopping, or turning on a slope. If the tires lose traction, disengage the blades and proceed slowly, straight
down the slope.
2.28 Keep all movement on slopes slow and gradual. Sudden changes in speed or direction could cause the machine to roll over.
2.29 Use extra care while operating machine with grass catchers or other attachments: they can affect the stability of the machine.
Do not use on steep slopes.
2.30 Do not try to stabilize the machine by putting your foot on the ground.
2.31 Do not mow near drop offs, ditches or embankments. The machine could suddenly roll over if a wheel goes over the edge or
the edge caves in.
2.32 Be aware of what is located at the bottom of slopes. For example: rocks water, cliffs, and roadways.
CHILDREN
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the presence of children. Children are often attracted to the machine and the
mowing activity. NEVER assume that children will remain where you last saw them.
2.33 Keep children out of the mowing area and in the watchful care of a responsible adult other that the operator.
2.34 Maintain alertness and turn machine off if a child enters the area.
2.35 Before and while backing, look behind and down for small children.
2.36 Never carry children, even with the blades shut off. They may fall off and be seriously injured or interfere
with safe machine operation. Children who have been given rides in the past may suddenly appear in the
mowing area for another ride and be run over or backed over by the machine.
2.37 Never allow children to operate the machine.
2.38 Never leave key in the ignition, especially around children.
2.39 Use extreme care when approaching blind corners, shrubs, trees, or other objects that may block your view
of a child.
TOWING
2.40 Tow only with a machine that has a hitch specifically designed for towing. Do not attach towed equipment except at the hitch
point.
2.41 Follow the manufacturer’s recommendation for weight limits for towed equipment and towing on slopes.
2.42 Never allow children or others in or on towed equipment.
2.43 On slopes, the weight of the towed equipment may cause loss of traction and loss of control.
2.44 Travel slowly and allow extra distance to stop.

SERVICE:
SAFE HANDLING OF DIESEL
To avoid personal injury or property damage, use extreme care in handling diesel.
2.45 Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes, and all other sources of ignition.
2.46 Use only an approved diesel container.
2.47 Never remove fuel cap or add fuel with the engine running.
2.48 Allow engine to cool before refueling.
2.49 Never fuel the machine indoors.
2.50 Do not store machine near open flame or source of ignition, such as a water heater or furnace.
2.51 Remove diesel powered equipment from the truck or trailer and refuel it on the ground. If this is not possible, then refuel such
equipment with a portable container, rather than from a fuel dispenser nozzle.
2.52 Never fill diesel containers inside a vehicle or on a truck or trailer bed with a plastic liner. Always place containers on the
ground away from your vehicle before filling.
2.53 Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel tank or container opening at all times until the fueling is complete. Do not
use a nozzle lock-open device.
2.54 If fuel is spilled on clothing, change clothing immediately.
2.55 Never overfill fuel tank. Replace fuel cap and tighten securely. Fuel tank is full when level reaches bottom of fill tube.
GENERAL SERVICE
2.56 Never operate machine in a closed area where dangerous carbon monoxide fumes can collect.
2.57 Keep all nuts and bolts tight to be sure the equipment is in safe working condition. Never operate a poorly maintained machine.
2.58 Do not touch hot areas of the machine.
2.59 Never interfere with the intended function of a safety device or reduce the protection provided by a safety device. Check their
proper operation regularly.
2.60 Keep the entire machine free of grass, leaves, or other debris build up. Clean up oil or fuel spillage and remove any fuel soaked
debris. Failure to do so can affect the safety and functionality of the machine, as well as increase the danger of a fire due to
contact with the hot surfaces of the machine.
2.61 Allow machine to cool before storing.
2.62 If you strike something with the mower, turn the mower and blades off, engage the parking brake, and inspect the machine for
damage. Repair, if necessary, before resuming.
2.63 Never make any adjustments or repairs with the engine running.
2.64 Check grass catcher components and the discharge guard frequently and replace with manufacturer’s recommended parts,
when necessary.
2.65 Mower blades are sharp. Wrap the blade or wear gloves before servicing them.
2.66 Check parking brake operation frequently. Adjust and service as required.
2.67 Maintain or replace safety and instruction labels, as necessary.
2.68 Do not attempt to mount a tire without the proper equipment and experience to perform the job.
PAGE 7
Page 8
2.69 Always maintain the correct tire pressure. Do not inflate the tires above the recommended pressure. Never weld or heat a wheel
and tire assembly. The heat can cause an increase in air pressure resulting in a tire explosion. Welding can structurally weaken
or deform the wheel.
2.70 Park machine on level ground. Never allow untrained personnel to service machine. Understand service procedure before
doing work.
SAFETY INTERLOCK SYSTEM
Your Bad Boy mower is equipped with a safety interlock system. This system is designed to prevent serious injury or death to the
operator and other people or property damage. The system consists of an operator presence switch in the seat, the parking brake,
drive lever neutral position, the mower blade engagement switch, and the ignition switch.
These interlocks are vitally important and must be tested frequently. Following are instructions to test these very important safety
precautions. Note: the operator must be seated properly on the machine during these tests and the engine should
have been previously allowed to warm to operating temperature.
2.71 With the parking brake engaged, bring lever arms to their inward position, then attempt to start the machine (the blade actuator
should be in off position); the engine should not start.
2.72 On a level surface, disengage the parking brake and place lever arms to their outward position, then attempt to start the
machine (the blade actuator should be in off position); the engine should not start.
2.73 Engage parking brake and leave lever arms in outward position, put blade actuator in the on position, then attempt to start the
machine; the engine should not start.
2.74 Next, start the engine as stated in the “Mower Operation Section”, disengage parking brake, and Very Slowly begin to rise from
the seat; the engine should stop.
If any of these tests fail to produce the results indicated and the problem cannot be identified, contact your Bad Boy Mower
dealer or the support contacts in the rear of this manual.
ROLL OVER PROTECTION STRUCTURES (ROPS)
If your machine is equipped with ROPS, it is of utmost importance they are used properly. ROPS, when used correctly, dramatically
decrease the fatality rate in instances when the machine overturns.
2.75 Periodically ensure the bolts that attach the ROPS to the machine are securely fastened.
2.76 Always operated the machine with the ROPS secured in the upright position.
2.77 If the surrounding environment (e.g. low lying limbs, signage, etc.) makes it impossible to mow with the ROPS upright, lower
the ROPS at the hinge point, mow the area, then immediately secure the ROPS upright.
2.78 Upright ROPS are taller than then operators head. Be aware of this and your surrounding environment, as referenced above.
The mower and operator may clear low lying items, but the ROPS may not.
2.79 Always wear the provided seat belt when ROPS are utilized. Failure to use the seat belt severely handicaps the safety benefits
of the ROPS.
2.80 In the event of a roll-over, replace the ROPS before resuming use of the machine.

SECTION 3: MOWER OPERATION
Never operate the machine with faulty equipment. Always be alert of sudden changes in landscape, as
the mower will react differently on slopes or embankments than it will on flat surfaces. Never operate
the mower with the discharge chute open. Do not cross terrain, other than grass, with blades turning.
This could cause damage to property or bystanders.
3.1 Place parking brake in up position
3.2 Drive arms must be in the “open” position. While sitting on the machine, each arm is
positioned away from the operator, to the right and left. Drive arms will lock into place and
must be in this position to start machine.
3.3 Put PTO switch in the OFF position.
3.4 If your machine has been equipped with a ROPS (Roll Over Protection System) then you
must fasten seatbelt.
3.5 If machine has not been started recently, engage the choke.
3.6 Make sure nothing is under or around machine.
3.7 Place key in ignition and turn.
3.8 Once machine is started, disengage the choke.
3.9 Increase RPM by sliding the throttle to fast position, toward the rabbit.
3.10 Owners must become familiar with the controls before operating a zero-turn radius vehicle.
3.11 Start slowly and build your skill level. Have ample practice before using the machine at full
capabilities.
3.12 Be comfortable with machine before engaging blades. Know what each component controls
before using machine.
3.13 Your mower will perform differently on an incline /decline. Be cautious, slow down, and do
not make any sudden jerking movements with control arms. The machine could lose traction
on a decline or tip backwards on an incline.
3.14 Once you become comfortable with your Bad Boy Mower you will notice your overall mowing
time will decrease.
Avoid operating your mower on side hills of over 5 degrees,
inclines of over 10 degrees,
and declines of over 15 degrees.

Page 13
SECTION 6: TROUBLESHOOTING
6.1 Q:How do I prevent an uneven cutting pattern and increase the quality of cut?
6.1 A: Check tire pressure, check blade sharpness (replace blades or sharpen at least once
per year or when needed), make sure blades are tightened properly, check spring and belt
tension, check the underside of the deck to ensure the mower deck is free of grass build-up
and debris, make sure your machine is at full throttle, and vary your mowing pattern each
time you cut your grass.
6.2 Q:What should I do if my mower won’t start?
6.2 A: Check battery charge and connection (grounds), check your fuel (make sure fuel is less
than 30 days old and contains no water), and make sure air filter is clean (a dirty filter makes
it more difficult for the engine to draw air). Check the integrity of the 25 amp main fuse; also
check for any bare wires and/or bad connections.
6.3 Q:What should I do if the blades won’t engage?
6.3 A: Make sure the safety switch is plugged in on the bottom of seat. Check the underside of
the PTO engager to ensure the plug is secure at switch.
6.4 Q: What type of fuel is recommended for my mower?
6.4 A: We recommend that you use a name brand fuel to ensure quality. Use only Ultra Low
Sulfur Diesel Fuel.
6.5 Q:Do you offer touch-up paint for your mowers?
6.5 A: Touch-up paint is available. Contact your local dealer for more information.
6.6 Q:How durable is the electric deck lift?
6.6 A: The actuator which controls the deck height is designed for moving loads of up to 1000
pounds and has a static holding capability which exceeds 3,000 pounds. Our ¼˝ deck weighs
approximately 250 pounds which is only 25% of working capability. If deck lift will not
operate, check fuse located underneath operator console (15amp).

*** Weights fluctuate with the addition of accessories.
8.5 As you can see by the weights of the machines, you shouldn’t ever try to push or pull a Bad
Boy Mower by hand. This could cause serious bodily injury.
8.6 Hopefully, you’ll never need to use this section of the manual. However, if you do, use
extreme caution when moving machine!
SECTION 9: INSTRUMENTATION
9 .1 Electronic Hour Meter—Registers Hour increments up to 9,999.9 total hours. This meter
records the cumulative time the engine is running.
PAGE 15
Page 16
SECTION 10: MOWER BLADE MAINTENANCE
10.1 Check mower blades after each use. This is essential for maintaining well-groomed turf. Keep
the blades sharp. If a dull blade is used for cutting, the grass will tear rather than cut. This
could damage the grass leaving a brown frayed top on the grass within a few hours. A dull
blade will also require more power from the engine.
10.2 NEVER attempt to straighten a bent blade by heating. NEVER attempt to weld a cracked
blade. The blades can break and cause serious injury or death.
10.3 NEVER work with blades while engine is running or deck clutch is engaged.
10.4 ALWAYS place deck clutch in DISENGAGE position while performing maintenance.
10.5 Use blocks when you MUST work under mower.
10.6 ALWAYS wear thick gloves when handling blades.
10.7 ALWAYS check for blade damage if mower strikes rock, branch, or other objects that could
potentially damage the blade.
(REMEMBER: NEVER CHECK BLADE WHILE ENGINE IS ON!
NEVER CHECK BLADES WHILE BLADES ARE ENGAGED!)
SECTION 11: GREASING THE BEARINGS
11.1 Park the machine on a level surface and disengage the blade control switch.
11.2 Move the motion control levers outward to the neutral position, engage parking brake, stop
the engine, remove the key, and wait for all moving parts to stop before leaving the operating
position.
11.3 Grease Type: NGLI grade #2 multi-purpose gun grease. Grease the front caster pivots.
11.4 Clean the grease fittings with a cloth. Scrape any paint off the front of the fitting(s).
11.5 Connect a grease gun to each fitting. Pump grease in fittings until grease begins to seep out
of the bearings. Wipe up excess grease.
11.6 Refer to service manual section for grease fitting locations.

HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT BLADE
Essentially there are only TWO basic styles of mowing blades used or approved for use on our current
products:
1) The standard style of mowing blade is essentially designed for cutting grass and effectively discharging
the clippings out from the deck to fall onto the lawn or to be captured in a grass collection system.
Standard blades are also referred to as “2-in-1” (discharging & bagging ) or “high-lift” blades (because
they are designed to create a higher-lifting airflow).
2) Mulching blades generally have a more curved style surface and frequently include extra cutting
surfaces along the blade edges. These blades may also come in a “+” design (which is actually two
individual blades arranged in a perpendicular fashion to enhance mulching). The “+” blades are usually
found on older style mowers; newer ones utilize blades with more advanced mulching technology.
Mulching blades may also be referred to as “3-in-1” (mulching, discharging & bagging) or “all-purpose”
blades.
Bear in mind that the re-circulating airflow design of 3/1 blades makes them less efficient at discharging
grass clippings than a standard 2/1 blade. As with most all-purpose tools, there is some give and take as
opposed to using a tool designed for a more specific purpose.
If you’re experiencing less-than-desired cutting or discharging performance with a 3/1 blade, you may want
to check into using a 2/1 blade. Conversely, if you’re using a 2/1 blade and want to mulch clippings, you
should see about the availability of mulching blades or a mulching kit.*
The type of blade installed on a new mower is a decision the retailer makes for each model of mower, based
on the expected needs of most customers. If you’re unsure of which blade is on a particular model, inspect
the blade. Blades have part numbers stamped into them. Then compare these part numbers with the unit’s
Operator’s Manual or Parts List.
It is true there are many other styles of blades available. But since we don’t manufacture or recommend
using these other aftermarket styles, we will leave them out of this discussion. Should you want more
information on special application or aftermarket blades, you should contact the companies that make these
products. NOTE: Customers using non-OEM blades do so at their own risk. The use of unapproved (nonOEM) blades may void any or all of the mower and engine factory warranties.
* MULCHING KITS – These generally consist of mulching blades and a mulching plug (which closes off
the discharge opening to keep the clippings contained under the deck for re-cutting) plus any necessary
hardware for installation. Please check with your parts distributor regarding the contents of a particular
mulching kit.

MOWING TIPS:
• Mow header strips at the ends of the lawn and around flower beds first. Make them wide enough that you can turn the mower
around in the already mown section. Then mow back and forth between these header strips overlapping each lap by about 1/8
the width of the mower’s deck.
• Don’t cut your grass too short, particular for cool season grasses. Higher heights usually provide for a deeper root system,
looks better, and is less likely to have weeds invading, particularly crabgrass.
• Don’t remove any more than one third of the grass leaf at any one cutting. If circumstances arise that a lawn gets too tall and
you just have to lop off a bunch to get caught up, bite the bullet and break it down into several mowings to get caught up with 3
or so days between cuttings.
• NEVER SCALP YOUR LAWN. Scalping severely damages the root system to such a degree that it may die.
• Avoid mowing when the grass is wet or when it’s dark
• Avoid throwing grass clippings into the street and driveway where they can be washed into the sewer system. After mowing,
clean up driveway and walkways.
• When mowing remove only a third with each cutting (except for the first mowing of the season when it’s ok to remove more).
You can safely leave clippings that will quickly decompose and add nutrients back into the soil. Contrary to popular opinion,
grass clippings do not add to thatch buildup. Grass blades are made up of about 75% water.
• Mow your lawn in a different direction with each mowing, especially with lawns of shorter grass types. Altering the direction
ensures a more even cut since grass blades will grow more erect and less likely to develop into a set pattern.
• Keep your mower’s blade sharp, which means having it sharpened several times during the mowing season. Keep several
blades around so you’ll always have a sharp one on hand. Sharp blades cut the grass cleanly and help mulch clippings into
small pieces which break down quickly.
• Don’t forget to change your mower’s oil at least once during the mowing season. For brand new mowers, change the oil after
about 5 hours of operation during the initial break-in period.
• At the end of the mowing season use a fuel stabilizer in the remaining diesel.
• In the spring, don’t use that old gas unless you properly used a fuel stabilizer, it can cause a number of problems. Better to use
fresh gasoline to begin the new mowing season.
• Leaf blade A demonstrates what a leaf blade should look like
after mowing with a sharp blade.
• Leaf blade B demonstrates a leaf blade that was injured by a
dull mower blade.
• Leaf blade C was cut by the mower but indicates that the
mower blade is not sharp enough. The shredded white tissue
protruding from the leaf blades C and D is the vascular tissue
of the plant.
• Leaf blade D has been mown for quite some time with a dull mower blade.
To bag or mulch?
Grass clippings do not contribute to thatch buildup or increase the chances of disease. If you mow your lawn at the right height,
without removing any more than 1/3 of it’s total height, clippings will quickly breakdown without a trace. These clippings
contribute additional nitrogen and other nutrients to the soil and supply it with additional organic materials. Clippings from a
1000 sq. ft. lawn can add as much as 1 - 2 pounds of nitrogen back into the soil.
If you have a compost pile, then you may want to bag your clippings occasionally to add much needed green-matter to the
compost pile. Make sure it is mixed thoroughly with brown matter to avoid a strong ammonia odor. DO NOT COMPOST CLIPPINGS after applying any weed control or weed-feed type product. Before adding clippings to the compost pile wait at
least 3 mowings after these products have been applied.

PAGE 19
Page 20
Purging Procedure
Due to the effects air has on the efficiency in
hydrostatic drive applications, it is critical that the air
is pu
rged from the system. These purge procedures
should be implemented any time a hydrostatic system
has been opened to facilitate maintenance or any
additional oil has been added to the system.
1) Lift the rear tires of the mower off of the ground
and chock your front tires so they do no move.
2) With the bypass valve open and the engine
running, slowly
move the directional drive arms
in the forward and reverse directions (5 to 6
times), as air is purged from the unit, the oil
level will drop.
3) With the bypass valve closed and the engine
running, slowly move the directional drive arms
in the forward and reverse directions (5 to 6
times). Check the oil level, and add oil as
required after stopping the engine.
4) It may be necessary to repeat steps 2 and 3
until all the air is completely purged from the
system. When the transaxle moves forward
and reverse at normal speed purging is
complete.

SECTION 2: DRIVE BELT
Shown on the right is the tensioner for your pump belt.
Adjusting this will either increase or decrease tension on
the belt. Use a ¾” wrench to loosen the jam nuts and
either tighten for more belt tension or loosen for less
belt tension.
The belt tension should be set to 70-75 lbs.
Use a belt tension gauge to ensure the proper tension.
Your dealer or service center will have a belt tension
gauge or you can buy one (Part Number 041-9999-00).

that the oil and filter be changed at intervals of 250
usage hours or yearly, whichever occurs first. The oil
capacity is approximately 5.91 quarts. Cat Diesel

3.1 Changing your engine oil and oil filter
1) After the engine has been run at the normal
operating temperature, stop the engine.
2) Remove the oil drain plug located underneath
the engine. Allow the oil to drain into a drain
pan. After the oil has drained, the oil drain plug
should be cleaned and installed.
3) Remove the oil filter with a chain wrench.
4) Check the oil filter for any metal debris that may
indicate engine wear.
5) Clean the sealing surface of the cylinder block.
6) Apply clean engine oil to the new oil filter seals.
7) Install the oil filter. Tighten the oil filter until the
oil filter seal contacts the cylinder block. Do not
overtighten the oil filter.
8) Remove the oil filler cap. Fill the crankcase with
approximately 5.91 quarts of oil. When refilling
be careful not to overfill the crankcase.
9) Start the engine and run the engine at “LOW
IDLE” for two minutes. Perform this procedure in
order to ensure that the lubrication system has
oil and that the oil filters are filled. Inspect the oil
filter for leaks.
10) Stop the engine and allow the oil to drain back to the sump for a minimum of ten minutes.
11) Remove the oil level gauge in order to check the oil level. Maintain the oil level between the “ADD” and “FULL” marks on the oil level gauge.

When servicing the fuel system on the CAT Diesel, it is
necessary to purge the air from the system by loosening
the 9/16˝ bolt on top of the fuel filter and pumping the fuel
bulb (located underneath the radiator) until air bubbles are
no longer visible.
3.2 Changing your fuel filter
1) 1Your CAT 1500cc Diesel has two fuel
system filters. The first is a filter/water separator.
2) Open the drain on the bottom of the filter/water
separator. Catch the draining fluid in a suitable
container. Dispose of the drained fluid correctly.
3) Close drain.

6) Clean the outside of the fuel filter assembly.
7) Remove the setscrew.
8) Remove the canister. Ensure that any fluid is
drained into a suitable container.
9) Assemble the following items: seals (8), seal (7),
canister (3), and bowl (10). Place washer (5) and
seal
(6) on setscrew (2).
10) Fasten the assembly to the fuel filter base with

Page 31
The deck spring tension is critical. If the tension is too
high, premature failure of the deck belt and blade
spindles can
‘jump off’ or slip
occur. If the tension is too low, the belt can
on the pulleys. This results in reduced
cut quality and early belt failure.
Spring tension adjustments can be made by sliding the
bolt shown above forward or backward in the slot of
the deck. Belt tension should be 50- 55 lbs. with the
deck at its lowest
setting.
Use a belt tension gauge to ensure the proper
tension. Your dealer or service center will have a
belt tension gauge or you can buy one (Part
Number 041-9999-00).
Blade Sharpening:
The blade on the top (see photo) was utilized long
after replacement was required. In addition to a
decline in cut quality, failure to replace a worn or
damaged blade
creates a major safety hazard. Bad
Boy recommends that blade sharpening be
performed by a professional.
PAGE 31
Page 32
Blade Removal:
To change blades, it may be easier to use a piece of
wood to keep the blade from turning so that the bolt can
be loosened. Use a 15/16” socket and impact Drill, or a
wrench and an extension to gain more leverage. You
might need to put a ¾” wrench on top of the pulley bolt
to keep the blade from spinning.

Bolts used have
Re-torque the b l ad e b olt s to 90-110 lbs.
The blade spindles contain a sealed

inside the top and bottom of the spindle. The
bearings are replaceable for a more cost effective
repair.
