Why does my Snapper ST2446 cut unevenly?

How do I safely remove the blade on the Snapper ST2446?
Disconnect the spark plug wire before working under the deck. Tip the mower on its side with the air filter and carburetor facing up to prevent oil spillage. Block the blade from rotating with a wooden block, then remove the blade bolt counterclockwise.
