TO INSTALL TAPER LOCK BUSHING
1. Clean shaft, bore and outside of bushing

threaded holes.
4. Alternately tighten the set screws to 175 in
lb (20 Nm).
5. Using a block, sleeve, or drift, hammer the

directly.
6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 until torque wrench
reading is the same after hammering as
before.
7. Fill all open holes with grease.
STATIC DRAG CHAIN
The static drag chain prevents the buildup of
static electricity in the machine. The chain is
attached to the rear skirt retaining strip.
Make sure that the chain is making contact with
the floor at all times.
