Clean knife holder and knife
Before mounting of the kniv es it is essential that both knife and knife loca-
tion surfaces are cleaned carefully. This is required to ensure that the
knife sits firmly on the knife holder.
Do not attempt to remove granulate with your fingers. The granulate
can be sharp and easily cause cuts and other injuries.
When cleaning the machine it is necessary to use a dust mask.
Mounting of knife and knife bolts
The knife is installed in the knif e holder and is pushed back towards the
adjusting screw. The knife bolts wit h locking washers are inserted and
they are tightened sufficiently to just hold the knife in place.
The adjusting bolts are pushed so far back that there is no risk of
contact between the flying and static knives.
It is important that each bolt has a set of 2 locking w ashers and that
the w ashers are inserted correctly w ith the toothed faces together,
see Figure 7.
Figure 7
It is recommended to grease the bolts with cu-grease or similar.
Above procedure is repeated for every static knife.
If the distance between the static and fl ying knives is correct (see 6.8),
tightening of the knife bolts can now take place. The knife bolts must be
tightened with a torque of 320 Nm.
Note: It is very important that the cassette for the static knives is in
order. If this is not the case it must be exchanged immediately.
