5. Remove spacers and shredder knives. Be careful to
keep track of the order the spacers were installed on
the shafts so they can be returned to the original
locations. If the spacers and knives are not installed
correctly, the rotor will be out of balance and will not
have proper shredding action.
6. Reverse or replace knives and reassemble back into
the rotor. Install new #10-24 bolt and nut through the
spacer and shaft, then retorque to 36 in lbs.
7. Complete service of all six shafts in this same
process.
8. After the access cover, discharge screen and cover
have been installed, torque all 3/8 bolts to 33 ft lbs.
and test run the machine.
