- Wear Gloves: Protect your hands while handling the blade.
- Turn Off the Mower: Ensure that the lawn mower is completely turned off and disconnected from any power source before removing or handling the blade.
- Work Slowly: Take your time and work deliberately to prevent any accidental cuts or injuries.
