Don't laugh too hard! the mower got borked first time out...
"Clark" ...
I'll have one for ya.
I agree on the blade thing, something tells me I should buy a dozen or
so blades, just in case.
I have 3 sets from before I started to sharpen my blades myself. I had
one on the mowing deck, one sharp and ready to put on and the other one at
the shop being sharpened/waiting for me to pick it up (meaning stored at
the shop, grin). Then when I dulled my blades I would swap in the good
set, run the dull ones to the shop, and get the sharp ones to be ready for
the next round.
Now I sharpen my own blades, which turns out to be easy with a dremel and
a bench clamp. Just grind a new bevel and ensure that it is reasonably
balanced.
Bent blades are tossed into the metal recycling, not fixed.
