The 8" cutterhead is equipped with 16 indexable cutter inserts. Each cutter insert can be rotated
to reveal any one of its two cutting edges. Therefore, if one cutting edge becomes dull or
damaged, simply rotate it 90° to reveal a fresh cutting edge.
In addition, each cutter insert has a reference mark on one corner. As the cutter insert is rotated,
the reference mark location can be used as an indicator of which edges are used and which are
new. See FIG 24.
