Reversing &
Replacing Blades
Each blade has two cutting edges so that if one
cutting edge becomes dull, you can reverse the
blade and use the fresh, sharp cutting edge. Each
flat head cap screw is keyed to align with mount-
ing slots in the blades.
If both cutting edges are dull, re-sharpen the
blades on a surface grinder and make sure they
stay flat along their entire length. If the blade
becomes too thin and the cap screw heads extend
beyond the cutting edge, you will need to replace
it. If the blade is nicked or damaged, replace it.
IMPORTANT: ALWAYS check the blade gap after
installation if you reverse, sharpen, or replace the
blades (see
Adjusting Blade Gap on Page 38).
Contact Grizzly at (800) 523-4777 or online at
grizzly.com to purchase Part No. P0845P034. We
recommend you keep an extra set of blades on
hand to minimize downtime.
3. Remove two pressure-regulating hex bolts
on hold-down clamp (see
Figure 60), then lift
out shaft and disc spring stack on each side.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT remove any disc
springs from shaft. Store the disc spring stack
in a safe location until re-installing the blade.
