Spiral Reel Blades
To replace a spiral reel blade:
1. Remove the bolts that secure the blade to the center
plate.
2. Install a new blade with 5/8-11 x 2-1/4” bolts and lock
nuts. Tighten the nut 160 ft.lbs. (215 N·m).
Note: Make sure the blades are positioned with the
beveled edge of the blade closest to the tab on
the center plate, as shown in the photo. Install the
bolts from the blade side.
NOTICE
Make sure the stop plate is not in constant contact
with the C-spring during normal operation. Reduce
the depth setting of the spiral reel to reduce the
constant contact.
Axle Assembly Wear Sleeves
No maintenance is required on the four axle mounting
bearings. Check for excessive wear annually. To replace
the bearings:
1. Support the main frame.
2. Support the wheel assembly and wheel lift cylinders to
relieve the pressure on the bearings.
3. Remove the bearing retainer caps (center bearings)
and end caps (outer bearings).
4. Insert four new bearing wear sleeves. Do not replace
just one sleeve.
5. Reinstall the retainers and caps.
