CUTTER BLADE
Check for wear and tighten the mounting bolts
It is important not to allow the cutter blade to
become loose. The three blade mounting bolts ’A’
should be checked and tightened five working hours
after initial fitting and every 30 working hours there
after. On a level surface, tilt the machine forward to
rest on the front chassis nose and use the tee
wrench supplied to tighten the bolts.. If the cutting
edge on the cutter blade cross knife or side knives is
rounded and dull, the blade should be removed for
sharpening. This should be done by a service work-
shop. The cutting bevel should be ground on the up-
per face of the blade cross knife and on the outer-
most faces of the side knives. If the blade cross
knife is worn to less than 30mm i.e. 60% its original
width, it will not enter the ground efficiently and
should be replaced.
