If you are going to leave the blades on to sharpen them, use a block of wood jammed between the blade and the bottom of the deck to hold the blade in place. That way you can use the grinder with both hands.
Don't forget the safety glasses, a face shield is also a good idea.
Make sure the drive shaft moves freely length wise or it may put pressure on the main gear, causing damage.
Use a leaf blower to get the grass off the deck, water is not your friend here. I've seen decks with so much grass for so long, it had turned into compost.
These are pretty simple machines, lube and paint keep a mower going for a long time.
