3. Backlap according to the procedure in the Toro
Sharpening Reel and Rotary Mowers Manual, Form No.
80-300 PT.
Contact with the reel or other moving parts can
result in personal injury.
• Stay away from the reel while backlapping.
• Never use a short handled paint brush for

Distributor.
Note: For a better cutting edge, run a file across
the front face of the bedknife when the lapping

or rough edges that may have built up on the cutting
edge.
