9.5  Blade Replacement

The use of worn blades decreases the effectiveness of 

the cutter and can also side load the cylinder, possibly 

damaging the tool. Pump overheating may also occur.
Replace blades immediately when it is noticed that 

they are worn and/or damaged, or if there has been a 

noticeable decrease in cutting performance.
The cutter contains a fixed blade and a moving blade. 

Refer to Section 9.5.1 for fixed blade replacement 

instructions and to Section 9.5.2 for moving blade 

replacement procedures.

 

NOTICE:

  CAUTION

Use extreme caution when removing 

and installing blades. Blades may be sharp even 

when worn. To avoid hand injury, wear appropriate 

hand protection and avoid contact with blade cutting 

edges.

 

NOTICE

To help ensure even blade wear and optimum 

cutting performance, it is recommended that both the 

fixed blade and the moving blade be replaced at the 

same time.

9.5.1  Fixed Blade Replacement

Replace the fixed blade as described in the following 

steps. Refer to Figure 11.
1. Start the pump. Move the piston to the “home” 

position (fully retracted). See Figure 7.

2. Stop the pump. Be sure that hydraulic pressure is 

completely relieved.

3. Disconnect pump from AC power supply.

 

NOTICE:

  WARNING

Always disconnect pump from AC 

power supply before beginning cutter blade 

replacement procedures. Failure to observe this 

precaution could result in accidental startup as 

procedures are being performed. Serious personal 

injury could result.

4. Place the cutter horizontally on a stable work surface.
5. Open the cutting head. Refer to Section 7.2 for 

additional information.

6. Remove retaining ring (Figure 11, item 4). Remove 

clevis pin (Figure 11, item 2) and cutting head 

 

(Figure 11, items 5-14).

7. Remove two socket head screws (Figure 11, 

 

item 13), lock nuts (Figure 11, item 6) and front lifting 

eye (Figure 11, item 7).

8. Remove two socket head screws (Figure 11, item 12) 

and eight socket head screws (Figure 11, item 14).

9. Separate left side outer plate (Figure 11, item 8), inner 

plate (Figure 11, item 10) and right side outer plate 

(Figure 11, item 11).

10.  Remove five fixed blade screws (Figure 11, item 5) 

and remove fixed blade (Figure 11, item 9).

11.  Install new fixed blade (Figure 11, item 9) onto left 

side outer plate (Figure 11, item 8) with five fixed 

blade screws (Figure 11, item 5) and torque to  

64 ft-lb [87 Nm]. Also apply Loctite 243 or equivalent.

12. Assemble the left side outer plate (Figure 11, 

item 8), inner plate (Figure 11, item 10) and right side 

outer plate (Figure 11, item 1) using eight socket 

head screws (Figure 11, item 14) and two socket 

head screws (Figure 11, item 12). Torque to 213 ft-lb 

[289 Nm].

13.  Install two socket head screws (Figure 11, item 13), 

front lifting eye (Figure 11, item 7) and lock nuts 

(Figure 11, item 6) and torque to 213 ft-lb [289 Nm].

14. Attach cutting head (Figure 11, items 5-14) to 

tool body using clevis pin (Figure 11, item 2) and 

retaining ring (Figure 11, item 4).

15. Close the cutting head. Refer to Section 7.2 for 

additional information.

16.  Test for proper operation before placing the cutter 

back into service.
