REMOVING, REPLACING,

If the knives are removed from the cutterhead for re-

placement or sharpening, care must be used in

removing, replacing, and resetting them.

1. Move the fence to the rear and remove the

cutterhead guard.

BE EXTREMELY CAREFUL THAT

YOUR HANDS DO NOT COME IN CONTACT WITH

THE KNIVES. THE KNIVES ARE VERY SHARP. WEAR

PROTECTIVE GLOVES WHEN HANDLING THE

KNIVES.

2. Using wrench (A) Fig. 38, slightly loosen the four

locking screws (B) in each knife slot by turning the

screws (B) clockwise. Loosen screws (B) Fig. 38, further

and remove knife and knife locking bar.

3. Fig. 39, shows the knife (C) and knife locking bar (D)

removed from the cutterhead. Remove the remaining

two knives and locking bars, in the same manner.

4. Using wrench (E) Fig. 39, lower the two knife

adjustment blocks to the bottom of the cutterhead by

turning screws (F) counterclockwise in all three slots of

the cutterhead.

5. Before assembling knives make certain the knives

and locking bars are thoroughly clean and free of gum

and pitch.

into each slot in the cutterhead.

CARE MUST BE TAKEN WHEN

INSERTING THE KNIVES AS THE CUTTING EDGES

ARE VERY SHARP. WEAR PROTECTIVE GLOVES

WHEN HANDELING THE KNIVES. Push the knife down

as far as possible and turn each screw (B) Fig. 38,

counterclockwise just enough to hold the knife in position.

Replace the remaining two knifes in the same manner.

KNIVES MUST BE INSTALLED CORRECTLY AS

edge of the knife extends out .060” from the cutterhead

diameter.

round portion of the cutterhead is on top as shown.

adjust the height of the rear table until it is .060” above

the cuttinghead diameter, as shown.
