Plate Installation (cont’d)
• Place mandrel on endcap end.
• Ensure outside of mandrel and each plate are cleaned. A light polishing of plate inside bore may
be required.
• Gently align plate with mandrel (plate should be level and concentric force should not be re-
quired) remove plate and re-clean (do not use force, do not hammer, do not lubricate), then plate
should slip onto mandrel.
• Once plate is on mandrel, gently rotate the plate until it reaches the end cap.
Second Endcap Installation
• Insert the end cap onto the mandrel and insert two (2) hex cap bolts through the endcap into
the mandrel, then hand tighten. End cap installation for now is only for handling and moving the
drum. Final assembly of end cap will be after drum installation.
• One by one, slide each plate onto the mandrel
ensuring all PCDs face the same direction
. For
best performance, rotate each individual plate so that each blade is staggered.
Be sure to put all of the PCD plates facing the same direction,
otherwise severe damage to drum will occur.
Failure to properly assemble will result in voiding of warranty.
