Changing Cutter Wheels
The Tiger SHARK
™
is equipped with the HPC Quick Nut; tools are not required to change
cutters. The following procedure is recommended when changing cutter wheels:
1.
Turn the Tiger SHARK
™
off. Hold the cutter head assembly and press down the shaft-lock button.
2. Turn the Quick Nut clockwise (toward the front of the machine) and remove it.
NOTE: The locknut is reverse thread.
3. Remove the cutter. Slide the new cutter onto the shaft. IMPORTANT NOTE: Be sure
the cutter is installed for a clockwise rotation, with the arrow facing the outside, so it
can be seen.
4. Reinstall the Quick Nut, turning counterclockwise (toward the rear of the machine)
onto the cutter shaft.
5. Hold the cutter head assembly securely and press down the shaft-lock button.
6. Tighten the Quick Nut. Note: Do not overtighten the nut.
NOTE: A special wrench has been included in
case the Cutter Nut has been inadvertently
overtightened.
