1 Drive out locking pin (B) using a hammer and punch.
Turn tooth (A) counter-clockwise and pull it off.
2 Thoroughly clean adapter (C), remove all mud and rust.
Push a new tooth (A) onto adapter (C) and turn it clockwise un-
til the tooth is properly seated, ensuring that the retaining pin
hole and groove are aligned.
3 After fitting the tooth, insert a new lock pin (B) into the pin hole
and groove and lightly tap it into position.
4 Check the following after changing the bucket tooth.
— Check if the inserted locking pin is flush with the surface
of the tooth.
— If required, slightly knock locking pin (B) inserted at one di-
rection upper face of the tooth direction to make it flush
with.
— Slightly knock the tip of the tooth upward and downward
and sideway in both directions.

placing the tooth.

loose.
