Bed Knife Sharpening
9-8 Bed Knife Installation & Setting
1. Install the new or re-sharpened bed knives, and clamps
in the reverse of removal. Make sure the knives are
fully back against the knife adjusting screws and loosen
the adjusting screw checknuts slightly. Do not torque
the hex head cap screws fully at this point -- snug them
down only.
New or resharpened knives should be handled with extreme care. It is
suggested that the sharp cutting edge be covered with tape to prevent damage
to the knives or injury to personnel during installation.
2. Align a rotor knife with the primary bed knife, in the
front of the granulator. With a 0.15mm feeler gauge
between the rotor and bed knife, start to adjust the bed
knife into the rotor knife using the adjusting screw.
