Replacing/Rotating Cutterhead Inserts continued...
5) While preventing the cutterhead from turning, remove each of the cutter inserts
(A) Fig.15 with the supplied Torx wrench (B).
6) Before replacing or rotating the inserts take a moment to clean the screw housing,
inserts (if rotating rather than replacing), and screws with a solvent such as lac-
quer thinner.
Note:
There is an etched reference mark on each insert to help keep track of which
cutting surface to use. Make sure to rotate all inserts so that the reference mark sits
in the same position on all inserts. All cutter inserts have a flat side, this side must
be positioned against the flat of the cutterhead.

1) Unplug the machine from the power source and remove the safety key from the
switch.
2) Using a flat head screwdriver, unscrew and remove the carbon brush cover (A)
Fig.16.
3) Remove the motor carbon brush (B) Fig.16 from its housing as shown. Install the
new identical carbon brush in its housing, then re-install the cover.

moving the dust chute will be required to access the carbon brush cover.
belt replacement
