12.1 ADDITIONAL DEEP SLIT KNIFE KIT (see fig.9) 

 

In case you want to use 6 Deep slit knives per disk, instead of the 4 we standard deliver, an additional 
kit (# 213.170.012 for 1700 and 213.220.012 for 2200) is available, that contains 24/ 32 more deep slit 
knives with bolts and nuts. 

When 6 deep slit knives per disk are used, it is important to mount them the same way as drawn in 
Fig.9. Use the holes as given in Fig. 8. 

 

 

12.2

 

  FINE SLIT KNIFE KIT ( See fig.10) 

The fine slit knives fit on the same rotor. Distance bushes are used to offset the knives from the disks, 
see Fig.10. Each disk can take up to 12 fine slit knives per side. It is important to know that on both 
outer disks, we can not assemble fine slit knives at the outer side. The fine slit knife kit (# 213.170.008 
for the 1700 and # 213.220.008 for the 2200) contains respectively: 264/ 360 fine slit knives (1), 528/ 
720 distance bushes (4,5 & 8), 264/ 360 long bolts (6), 48/ 48 short bolts (9) and 312/ 408 nuts (3). 

They should be assembled as drawn in Fig.10. As described previously, more options are possible. E.g. 
use 6 double row fine slit knives, or 12 at a single row per disk ( no distance bushes needed).  

@ If the customer often switches from one type of knife to the other, it is maybe worth buying another  

     standard rotor and exchange rotors instead of knives. 

@ Check the bolts and nuts regularly. 

@ Exchange bent knives immediately.
