How do I remove and replace the lawnmower blade?
Who's going to sit there and figure out that a 180 lb man standing (?) on
the end of a 24" breaker bar will deliver 90 ft/lbs of torque? What if you needed only 75 ft/lbs? Do you know the formula to determine that you'll have to stand on the breaker bar at 10" from the center of the nut? It's not rocket science, but neither is changing a lawn mower blade. If you need to, rent/buy a torque wrench.

You know your weight in pounds. 2. You know the length of the wrench in feet. 3. You know the desired torque in foot-pounds. It's neither rocket science nor brain surgery. |
