Figure 25. G1033 and G1033Z cutterhead
components.
Note: The cutterhead for Models G1033 and
G1033Z ships with both springs and jack
screws to adjust the knife height (see
Figure
25)—which one you use is a matter of per-
sonal preference. However, if you use the
springs, you must first remove the jack screws
from the cutterhead before proceeding.
— The advantage of using springs is that
springs maintain a constant upward pres-
sure on the knives while using the knife-
setting jig during
Step 6.
— The advantage of using jack screws is
that once you set the proper height of the
screws, they should require little to no
adjustment when replacing the knives.
5. Loosen cutterhead gib bolts until knife is
completely loose.
— If you are replacing the knives, remove the
old knife and install the new one, making
sure the beveled edge of the new knife is
facing the correct direction.
6. Position knife-setting jig over knife so that
knife edge is directly under center pad, as
shown below.
