Fiskars makes a sharpening Kit. Available on Amazon $30.00. Consists of lapping compound, a brush to apply, and a crank to turn the reel backwards.

Back lapping is how you “ sharpen” these reel mowers. To grind the reel blades and bed knife, you need special equipment like a golf course has.

I just bout a second hand mower and its missing both "cam locking bolts"... I can't find an image of them anywhere online. This video is the only thing I've found so far that even remotely shows them. After taking it apart to understand how it adjusts, I figure there are two different bolts. But I want proof before I fabricobble something home made. So if anyone has this rig...and feels like taking it apart to show me exactly what they look like, I would greatly appreciate may post a video of my dilemma.

Hello, I phoned Fiskars and they said I shouldn't have to loosen the bed knife 10mm bolt on both side because they were factory pre-set and should be parallel with the reel already. Now I am having problems after I grinded the blades, that they are not cutting the paper. Mower was brand new just over 1 year old. I wonder you had my problems before and that was why you said the 10 mm bolt need to be lossen ?

Why don't you show how to take the wheels off? Even Fiskars doesn't have this.
