WIRE CUTTER JAW SET MAINTENANCE
The blade gap as well as the pre-load of the
blades are set through the castle nut with
spring washer. The spring washer preserves
the tension of the blades until they are worn in
significantly. As the blades wear in, adjust the
castle nut to restore tension.
To add tension to the blades remove spring
pin, tighten the castle nut, then replace the
spring pin.

To change the blades, remove the Bolts (F0620040) then remove the blades and replace with new
or resharpened blades. Re-install the bolts and tighten to 450 Ft/Lbs or 610 Nm. Check blade gap
and pre-tension.
To resharpen the blades, they
must be re-
moved
from the shear and reground at a 45
degree angle. While grinding, the tempera-
ture of the cutting edges must not exceed
200º C or 392º F to preserve the material
properties. The blades must be replaced
when they do not overlap in the fully closed position.
The cutting edges can be very sharp, even after use.
Always wear suitable protective gear and gloves.
