That is correct , A Shifting spanner or a shifter for short is an adjustable spanner

(Quote+finsruskw) To me, that would be a last resort!
Good way to bust some knuckles and round off the corners of the nut!

Never had that problem of rounding off nuts
However the mistake is I am an Australian not a Brit
Also to clarify a recent post about an American screwdriver to us Aussies that is a "Hammer"
No offense is taken or given

My 1/2" IR with 125 PSI has always been enough and it's only 35 years old.

Just to clarify;
It is a British term and you speak English and used it.
So where did I say you are a Brit?

But then, I've been using an impact gun on mower blades for many years. Between running, grass juice and corrosion those nuts can get very tight.

Just don't over tighten with the impact when you put them back on. Just make them tight and stop.

One other thing I've been doing since back in the 1960's, is to put a dab of Neversieze on the threads before putting blades back on. Just a dab, don't overdo it or that stuff gets everywhere.
Perfect advice. Sometimes I use Mobil 1 grease for never seize as well.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
