Rotation
Remove the blade bolts, guide blade and shims. Rotate the blade end-for-end or side-to-side;
reinstall and torque bolts. Check gap; shim if required.
If the guide blade faces are excessively worn, the blades cannot be rotated. Excessively worn
blades will have uneven surfaces that, when placed upon guide blade seat surfaces, will not be
supported and will break, resulting in blade seat damage.
Replacement
Remove guide blade and shims. Install new guide blade with no shims. Check blade gap and shim
as needed.
Adjustment Plates
Do not remove the guide blade adjustment plates from the lower jaw during routine blade rotation
or replacement. These plates are custom-machined for each jaw set and need only be replaced
when lost, damaged or extremely worn.
Inspect the top of the adjustment plate for burrs, nicks or other imperfections that may prevent
proper seating of the guide blade and cause errant blade gap readings. Clean the adjustment
plate as necessary. Inspect the blade seat for damage or imperfections and clean or repair as
necessary.
Replacement plates can be ordered from your Genesis dealer or the Genesis parts department
with the serial numbers of your attachment and jaw set.
Offset dowel or fastener holes are located in each adjustment plate. When replacing adjustment
plates, make sure these are aligned with the corresponding holes in the blade seat.
Do not grind on blade seat areas.
