i own a Craftsman Eager 21" 6.5HP Mulcher Lawn Mower (Model #: 944.362520). I recently replaced the blade with a new mulching blade but now Im wondering if it was installed correctly. How can i be sure the mulching blade isn't installed upside down as I can quite easily install it either way.
There is a imprint on the blade that says this side down which i installed it as but how can i be sure this is correct for my mower?
The blade also had the imprint:

The leading edge of the sharp portion of the blade has to be down. Also, some mulching blades have a raised section at the end of the blade (on the side opposite to the cutting edge) this has to be on the up side of the blade. Its purpose is to toss the clippings up so they get cut again as they fall.

The blades on the outer edge should match a regular mowing blade. The blades towards the inside should look upside down.

they normally have a bow shape to them (sort of)
The middle should be higher than the edges.
Look at the sharp part of the blade it should be on the bottom
