Use an impact wrench, They spin right off.
I'd be willing to bet that Harry doesn't have one.
Probably not. I have 5, 2 electric and 3 air.
I have a pneumatic impact wrench, two in fact, one of which I have owned
for more than 40 years.
I don't own any. I removed the blades by cutting (and saving) a 4x4
block of wood to a measured length that would fit between a blade and a
somewhat flat section of the mower deck. Used a long box wrench to
loosen the blade nut. The 4x4 prevents the blade from turning.
Last time I tried to remove my mowers blade, the nut was frozen in place.
Even a long breaker bar did not budge it. Maybe should have tried the air
wrench. Now I spend $100 a month and do not sharpen the blade.
