My question was how do you tell Left from Right on Walker mower Blades. I put them on backwards when I sharpened and it definately doesn't mow very good.
So there is a Left and a Right....I just don't know how to tell.

are the blades differant lenghts?could you possibly have them upside down? russ
Is one blade designed to cut CW and the other CCW?
I have seen this before, so long ago that I do not remember what it was on...
On your Walker, it could be that way... But I'm with russ on this, most likely upside down...
the lift wing should be on the top of the blade... I think everyone has mounted one or more blades upside down at some time or another... :smile:KennyV

Kenny the blades to my grasshopper have stamped "grass side down".I'm a day late on asking the dealer that also sells Walker mowers about this. russ

Hello, I have moved your post to the Walker Forum. You will have better luck finding assistance there. :wink:
I am assuming you have a bagger deck, which means they have to go on with the sharpened part of the blade facing the center discharge shute. If they are put on backwards the grass isn't being cut.
Troy - what size mowing deck are you using? Not that this has much to do with blade placement but I believe the larger decks have three blades, others use two blades. The post about the blades turning into the center discharge chute makes sense. :smile:
Troy. If your mower is like mine (walker) as you look from the top of the deck while cutting, the left blade turns clock wise and the right blade turns counter clock wise. When you put the blades on pay attention to put them on that way with the lifting vane facing up. This is if you have the grass handling system. If you have the side discharge, then Im not sure how those go. I hope that this helps you out.
