Remove & Replace Blade
IMPORTANT
- The cutting edge may be sharp following tool operation, extreme caution and care
should be taken when checking it. Wear suitable gloves when handling the blade.
IMPORTANT
- Ensure that the hydraulic supply is isolated before proceeding.
IMPORTANT -
Replacement parts must always be sourced from Allspeeds Ltd. The use of unofficial
components will invalidate the warranty and may lead to tool damage or system failure.
The blade edge should be regularly checked to ensure that it is in good condition. This would be a
consistent blade edge with no chips or deformations noted along the entire cutting edge.
For safety we recommend that this operation is performed with the tool led down.
Begin with the anvil removed as described in section 9.3. The main cylinder should be in its fully
extended position. To extend the bl
ade, pressurise the ‘Blade Down’ port on the HCV270 main
cylinder whilst ensuring that the ‘Blade Up’ port is open to tank
Remove the 3 off blade retaining pins (030636) using a suitably sized drift. Once blade retaining pins
are removed the blade is free to slide in the tool, care must be taken to prevent the blade from
falling or causing injury to operator.
IMPORTANT
–
Mass of blade (705050C) is 13kg. Ensure a safe system of work at all times.
