Hopefully not an old-thread revisited, but need to figure out what size socket to buy to get the blades off my RC60-72H (I'm guessing all the RC60's use the same size blade bolt). it's much bigger than any socket size I currently own. I'm also assuming that these are reverse threaded and metric.

I think the blades have been on there for the entire 20+ years of it's operation based on the complete lack of cutting surface :) Well built stuff and a convincing argument that anything spun fast enough will cut grass.... $30 for a new set seems a small price to pay.

History: mower is on a B6200, which is now on season 3 in my possession. Still starts and runs well (knocking on wood here) despite being over 20 years old.

I don't have info on your RC60-72H, however, FWIW the head on the blade bolt on my 2003 vintage RCK60-24B is 30mm (1-3/16 in.). The head on the blade bolt for the RCK60-75B is listed as 30.2 mm (1-3/16 in.). Best wishes!
