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. |

I used one of mine once...to change a tire. Swiped the older one from my dad's shop when we shut down the boat store, the other came with a compressor I bought when we moved into this house. |

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. |
