   <\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Safety first<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If your lawn mower is electric. Make sure it is unplugged from the power supply. If it is Battery operated remove the battery. And if it is a petrol mower then remove the spark plug cap before doing any maintenance on your machine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gloves may be necessary when handling the blade and eye protection is advisable when sharpening the blade. If you use an angle grinder then eye protection is a must and ear protection is advisable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"170\" height=\"170\" src=\"http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/ear.png\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"494\" data-full-url=\"http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/ear.png\" data-link=\"http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/?attachment_id=494\" class=\"wp-image-494\" srcset=\"http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/ear.png 170w, http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/ear-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 170px) 100vw, 170px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"178\" height=\"177\" src=\"http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/eye.png\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"495\" data-full-url=\"http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/eye.png\" data-link=\"http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/?attachment_id=495\" class=\"wp-image-495\" srcset=\"http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/eye.png 178w, http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/eye-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 178px) 100vw, 178px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Getting the blade off<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The first job is to get the blade off the lawn mower. I still have the spanner that came with my lawn mower but if you have lost yours I recommend buying the correct replacement. If you use a different type of spanner you run the risk of damaging the head of the retaining bolt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An electric lawn mower and a battery powered mower are fine to turn on to their sides to gain access to the blade. However if you have a petrol mower it is best to tip it backwards so that the fuel and oil don&#8217;t leak out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now with access to the blade I can unscrew the retaining bolt. I do this by gripping the blade on the non sharpened side and turn the bolt anti clockwise. Once it is loosened I am able to unscrew it the rest of the way by hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As long as it&#8217;s not rusted on, the blade should be easy to get off. If it is difficult to remove, spray the bolt with some WD-40 or something similar. Leave it to soak in for 10-15 minutes and this should help you to unscrew it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When I have removed the blade, I always put the bolt back into the lawn mower. Just screwed in loosely so that it doesn&#8217;t go missing.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Whilst the blade is off<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whilst I have the blade off, I take the opportunity to scrape around inside the lawn mower. Grass and mud accumulate over time and with the blade removed it is easy to scrape all of this away. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot35-1024x576.png\" alt=\"Lawn-mower-blade-sharpening-02\" class=\"wp-image-498\" srcset=\"http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot35-1024x576.png 1024w, http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot35-300x169.png 300w, http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot35-768x432.png 768w, http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot35-750x422.png 750w, http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot35-320x180.png 320w, http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot35-480x270.png 480w, http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot35-720x405.png 720w, http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot35-735x413.png 735w, http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot35.png 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Holding the blade<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whichever way you choose to sharpen your blade it is important to hold it down securely when doing so. If the blade is not clamped down securely then you run the risk of it slipping or falling, possibly causing injury to yourself or damage to the blade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I like to use a quick grip clamp, but a g-clamp would do just as well. In the video I clamp the blade to a garden bench which is ideal because it is flat. I sometimes use the workbench in my workshop. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Clamp the blade securely to a flat, stable surface. And make sure the edge to be sharpened is slightly overhanging. So when you are sharpening the blade you don&#8217;t damage the bench.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot37-1024x576.png\" alt=\"Lawn-mower-blade-sharpening-03\" class=\"wp-image-499\" srcset=\"http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot37-1024x576.png 1024w, http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot37-300x169.png 300w, http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot37-768x432.png 768w, http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot37-750x422.png 750w, http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot37-320x180.png 320w, http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot37-480x270.png 480w, http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot37-720x405.png 720w, http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot37-735x413.png 735w, http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot37.png 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Method #1<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With the blade firmly clamped down I use a metal file. I keep the file at the angle that the blade is ground to and make multiple passes keeping even pressure with each stroke. I do this until the blade comes to a sharp point and most of the chips in the blade have disappeared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This method is great if the blade is still in good condition from the last sharpening. Or it just needs a little touch up. However if the blade has been neglected for a while. And it is very blunt and has many chips. Sharpening this way will take a long time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot39-1024x576.png\" alt=\"Lawn-mower-blade-sharpening-04\" class=\"wp-image-500\" srcset=\"http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot39-1024x576.png 1024w, http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot39-300x169.png 300w, http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot39-768x432.png 768w, http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot39-750x422.png 750w, http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot39-320x180.png 320w, http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot39-480x270.png 480w, http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot39-720x405.png 720w, http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot39-735x413.png 735w, http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot39.png 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Method #2  <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This method is a whole lot quicker. I own an angle grinder and I use it for numerous tasks around the workshop and on my home renovation jobs. With a metal grinding disc in the grinder it sharpens blades really quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The theory is the same as it was for method #1. Keep the grinder at the angle that the blade was already ground to. And make multiple passes until the blade comes to a point and most of the chips have gone. Take your time though because an angle grinder will take too much off if you&#8217;re not careful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But remember the grinder is noisy and throws out sparks. So eye protection and ear protection are a must. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot40-1024x576.png\" alt=\"Lawn-mower-blade-sharpening-05\" class=\"wp-image-501\" srcset=\"http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot40-1024x576.png 1024w, http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot40-300x169.png 300w, http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot40-768x432.png 768w, http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot40-750x422.png 750w, http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot40-320x180.png 320w, http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot40-480x270.png 480w, http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot40-720x405.png 720w, http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot40-735x413.png 735w, http:\/\/spendtimesavemoney.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/snapshot40.png 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Balancing the blade<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A lawn mower blade spins at a very high speed. If the blade isn&#8217;t balanced then it will cause a lot of vibration. This is not good for your machine. So a simple job is to check if the blade is balanced. I do this by hammering a panel pin partially into a vertical surface. In the video I use the kids wooden climbing frame. But you could use a gate or a tree etc. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Put the blade onto the panel pin through it&#8217;s centre hole. If the blade is even both sides and levels out it is fine.
