A tip I should have, would have, could have: Buy the blade replacement online at the same time and get the thatching type with fans of steel cut into the blades. You'll get a wonderful, new, even cut with little thatch.
Another tip: Keep the old parts you take off on nails and hooks so you can know which ones to replace next time.
