4. Carefully select and properly position each
tooth according to proceeding diagrams.
Position teeth as shown in diagram on pg.
30. Straight teeth should be 180 degrees
apart on the same side of the cutter
wheel. On the opposite side of the cutter
wheel, straight teeth should be 180
degrees apart but rotated 90 degrees to
the first side.
When using RAYCO brand square-
shanked teeth, set extreme edge of each
tooth 1¼" away from edge of pocket as
diagram shows. (See page 30.)
When using RAYCO SUPERTEETH,
because of one piece construction no
pre-setting of the tooth is required.
NOTICE:
Do not hammer the tip of a tooth. Due to the su-
per hardness of the tooth, it is brittle and may
chip from such treatment.
Replacement teeth and pockets are available from
your dealer or direct from RAYCO. Refer to the
Parts
section for part numbers.
A left, a straight and a right tooth is determined by
which direction the tip of the tooth points. The left and
right sides of the cutting wheel correspond to the left
and right sides of the machine itself. (For a review of
the machine orientation see the
Foreword
section.)
Sharpening of Teeth
Do not allow any tooth to wear too much before
sharpening. Discard any tooth that has lost more than
1
/
8
" of original bite.
The teeth must be removed from the cutting wheel for
proper sharpening.
NOTICE
Sharpening cemented carbide cutting teeth
requires a special process. Have your teeth
sharpened only by a qualified machinist for
obtaining a proper edge and to avoid injury.
Tooth Sharpening Guidelines
1. Obtain an unused tooth for comparison.
2. Discard any tooth that has lost more than
1
/
8
" of
original bite, whether lost through usage or
grinding.
3. Grind off minimal amount from end, just
enough to restore the original taper and radius
on end. The end of the cemented carbide tip
and the end of the steel shank should be flush
after grinding.
Make sure teeth are placed in
coordinance with wheel rotation.
After setting each tooth pair, tighten the
socket head bolts to 135 to 145 foot-
pounds.
