STEP FIVE - Release Carbides
It is necessary to release the carbides from the locked
position so that the blade can be easily removed. The carbides are
released by loosening the lock nuts and loosening the set screws.
STEP SIX - Blade Tension
To remove the blade, the blade tension must be released. Turning the
tension handle counter clockwise releases tension, and clockwise ro-
tation tensions the blade. When re-tensioning, the tension pressure
can be seen on the LCD display.
Note:
Blade motor will not start unless tension pressure is within
proper range.
STEP SEVEN:
Remove the blade from the carbide guides by pulling out.
STEP EIGHT:
Remove the blade of the wheels. Gloves are a necessity.
STEP NINE:
Place the new blade onto the wheels in correct orientation; teeth
pointing down as they pass through the guides and teeth pointing out
(away) from front of the wheel.
STEP TEN:
Tension the blade just enough to keep blade on the wheels.
STEP ELEVEN:
Place the new blade into the carbide guides (by twisting the blade)
until seated.
STEP TWELVE:
Slightly Increase the tension and close both the idler and drive wheel doors.
STEP THIRTEEN:
Power up the machine and set Blade Tension to 2400 lbs (see LCD) Minimum blade tension required for the blade to start
is 1320 lbs or 600kg.
STEP FOURTEEN - BCM
Switch the blade change mode switch to the OFF position.
STEP FIFTEEN:
Start the blade for a few rotations. This allows the blade to fully seat in the carbide guides and track onto the wheels.
FINAL STEP
Turn the machine power disconnect to the OFF position.
Set the carbide pads on both the upper and lower guide blocks:
- Tighten the set screw against the pad, then back it off. Do this 3x.
- Once the pad is loaded properly, loosen the set screw a 1/16 to 1/8 of a turn.
- Tighten the nut to lock it in place.
Break-in the blade.
