e) CULTIPLOW rotor with 1 bolt per blade
(photo 60)
This
CULTIPLOW
rotor is fitted with left and right
angled blades. To distinguish left blades from right
blades, refer to part number marked on the back of
each blade (K1631030 = left blade, K1631040 = right
blade).
Each rotor flange is equipped with 2 left angled blades
mounted in holders welded to the flange left face and
2 right angled blades mounted in holders welded to
the flange right face.
On the end flanges, all holders are welded on the inner
face of the flanges.
Make sure to place the end flange blades in such a
way that they continue the spiral formed by the other
blades.
To replace blades, slightly unscrew fixing nuts, re-
move blades from holders, insert new blades and
tighten nuts.
Bolt torque : 30 daNm/220 ft.lbs.
When replacing blades, also replace
guard caps (C) located on both rotor
end flanges (photo 60).

Detach rotor
by proceeding as follows :
- Remove the 9 special hexagonal bolts (M16 x 43)
and their conical spring washers at F (photo 61).
- Remove the 2 hexagonal bolts (T) (M16 x 55)
(photo 62).
- Lift the machine. The complete rotor with housing
(H) now separates from drive flange (E) and side
shield (J) (photo 62).
Fit an alternative rotor :
Install the rotor by following the disassembly proce-
dure in reverse order.
- Tighten the 2 hexagonal screws (T) (M16 x 55) (photo
62) to a torque of
30 daNm (221 ft.lbs)
.
- On drive flange (E) side, assemble 9 special hex-
agonal bolts (M16 x 43) and their conical spring
washers at F (photo 61). Tighten to a torque of
30
daNm (221 ft.lbs)
.
