Flipping or Replacing the
Cutting Edge
The urethane cutting edge wears down over time, but
can be flipped for extended use. Once the cutting
edge has been worn down past the logo, it must be
flipped (
). If the cutting edge has already
been flipped, replace the cutting edge; contact an
authorized BOSS dealer for more information.
