Note: Proper cleaning of the insert, Torx
screw, and the cutterhead pocket is critical to
achieving a smooth finish. Dirt or dust trapped
between the insert and cutterhead will slightly
raise the insert, and make noticeable marks
on your workpiece the next time you cut.
Tip: Use low-pressure compressed air or a
vacuum nozzle to clean out the cutterhead
pocket.

Note: If too much oil is applied to the threads,
the excess will attempt to squeeze out of the
threaded hole as you install the insert and
force it to raise slightly, which will make it out
of height alignment.

The carbide inserts are very sharp and can
quickly cut your hands. ALWAYS use cau-
tion and heavy leather gloves when handling
these parts to reduce the risk of personal
injury.
