HRX217HYA Blade change

[Papa5]

Best lawnmower we've ever had, and it's time to remove & sharpen/replace the blades. But for the life of me I can't remember if the bolts have reverse threads or that I just need a longer cheater. I know i torqued them last time so they may just be real tight.
Does anyone know which it is - reverse or just tight bolts? Thank you for taking the time to help out.

righty tighty......lefty loosy. You overtightened. Too much spinach!

I even sharpen brand new blades to ensure they are ready for the job.
