• After knives have been removed, clean
the pocket to remove any debris that
may keep the knife from seating
properly.
DANGER – KNIVES ARE
EXTREMELY SHARP
• Inspect both edges of knives; wear
leather gloves while handling knives.
If knives still have one good edge, rotate
each knife and reassemble. Make sure
all knife edges line up in the set of four.
• Inspect knife bolt holes for cracks or
distortion, replace knives if any
problems are found.
• If both edges are worn or chipped, have
knives ground to sharpen.
• Never use knives that are below 2" from
center of hole to outside edge of knife.
Keep sets of knives together that are
ground to the same distance from center
of hole to outside edge. This will keep
the cutter disk balanced reducing chipper
vibration and improving cutting. A set is
six knives, three knives in each of two
opposing pockets.
• ONLY have knives sharpened by an
authorized dealer using the proper
equipment.
• Improper sharpening may affect
knives hardness resulting in knife
failure.
• If knives are too narrow to grind, replace
with a complete set of new knives.
• Knives are hardened steel made to
Carton’s specifications. Use only
Carlton chipper knives as replacements.
