Pick Removal/Replacement:
•
Proper pick maintenance is essential to the productive use of your Planer. Failure to perform
regular pick maintenance can result in severely decreased performance and expensive repairs
to your Planer drum.
•
A missing pick must be replaced immediately, as a missing pick will cause the surrounding picks
to wear faster.
•
Picks must be replaced when their carbide tips become excessively blunt.
•
Picks must rotate freely in their holders. If picks do not rotate freely, they will develop flat spots.
Picks should be removed and retaining rings cleaned as necessary.
CAUTION!
Picks become hot during operation: Wait for picks to cool before replacing.
Do not hammer on carbide point when replacing picks. The carbide can break and cause
injury.
•
Remove and replace picks using the pick removal tool (LAF9326) and a hammer as shown
below.
NOTE: The edge picks wear faster and require more frequent replacement.
NOTE: Do not hammer on carbide point of the pick. The carbide can break and cause injury.
