CUTTER HEAD ADJUSTMENT
NOTICE:
Over tightening of cutter head can result in excessive wear to brass wear
plates and cutters. This may also shorten cutter and bearing life.
*Make sure machine is locked out before checking cutter clearance.
Ameri-Shred recommends thoroughly cleaning the cutter head and ensuring that
cutters move freely on the shafts before checking clearance.
Cutter Clearance should be checked if any of the following conditions exisit:
 Shred capacity drops noticeably
 Media is passing through cutters without being completely shredded
 Cutter Head becomes extremely hot
 Abnormal noise being generated from cutter head
 Noticeable large gap between two cutters.
NOTICE: CUTTER HEAD ADJSUTMENT MUST BE MADE ON A COLD
CUTTER HEAD!
 Lock out machine power to prevent injury
 Remove Rear Guard
 Clean and oil the cutter head ensuring that there are no obstructions
 Move all of the cutters to the spur gear side of the cutter head
 Check distance between the overlap of a upper and lower cutter using a pry
bar and a feeler gauge. Cutter clearance should be set to a minimum of
.030” ( approximately 1/32”)
 Locate the set screws on the chain side of the cutter head. Loosen the jam
nut, and using an allen wrench to turn the screws clockwise to close the gap.
 Once the wear plate touches the cutter, back the screw off half of a turn.
This will closely approximate a 1/32” clearance. Tighten the jam nuts and
replace all guards and covers.
