Figure 5.17 – Blade Carrier Options
5.4.2 Blade Inspection
Inspect the machine blades before each use to determine that they are properly installed, secure and in good
condition. Replace any blade sets that are bent, excessively nicked, worn or have any other damage. If any
blade is damaged it is important to replace both blades on that rotor to retain the balance of the particular rotor.
Failure to replace such abnormally damaged blades may lead to catastrophic failure of the blade and ejection of
the broken part with tremendous force which may cause bodily injury or death.
See Figure 5.18 shows the visual indications to look out for of worn blades.
