Replacing the Teeth
Service Interval:
Before each use or daily—Check
the condition of the teeth and rotate
or replace any that are worn or
damaged.
Due to the high amount of wear placed on the teeth,
you will need to rotate and replace them periodically.
Each tooth is indexed with 3 positions so that you can
rotate it twice, exposing a new sharp edge before
replacing the tooth.
