Abstract
A blade adapter apparatus configured to couple multiple cutting blades to a shaft of an outdoor power equipment. The blade adapter apparatus can simplify attachment of multiple blades, which can be performed prior to interfacing with the outdoor power equipment. The blade adapter apparatus can prevent the multiple blades from being attached according to an improper orientation and prevent the multiple blades from being attached according to an improper order. The blade adapter apparatus can furthermore robustly distribute load from a high energy impact event, and/or maintain a fixed angle between blade tips of a multi-blade assembly.
