11.4.2 Reversing and
renewing the shredding
knives
Warning :
Wear protecti ve gloves as the knives are razor sharp !
Knives sharpened at regular intervals ensure a knife li fe in excess of 50 hours for each blade
edge (100 hours with
RESIST TM blades). When one cutting edge becomes worn, you can reverse the blade. If both blade edges
are worn, renew the knife as a set.
A. To reverse a shredding knife, proceed as follows.
• Open the shredding chamber (see Chapter 11.2.4).
For your
information :
Reverse the blades as a pair (as shown in the photos) in order to work in an
organised manner.
• Disassemble the blades by removing the two M8 bolts from each blade. In this situation always
use two ring spanners fitted with long steels. (M8 SW 13)
• If the bolts or nuts are damaged, they must be renewed.
• Release the shred knives using a self-grip wrench.
Changing the blades of group 1. (Blade pairs 1, 2, 3
and 4)
• Remove a knife from the left-hand side, rotate it through 180° and fit it in the same position, but
to the right-hand disk. Rotate the blade previously removed from the right-hand blade disk, and fit
it in the empty hole drilled in the left-hand blade disk. Repeat this procedure for each blade (8) of
group 1.
