Use an impact wrench to remove the blade bolt F . If an
impact wrench is not available; use a socket on a long
breaker bar or a box wrench to loosen the blade bolt. If

If the blade is good, it may be turned over to use the
second set of cutting edges.

replaced.

Use of another manufacturer’s blades may be
dangerous.
Sharpening:
Wear the appropriate personal protective equipment
when sharpening the blade.

•
Replace broken, bent , cracked or otherwise
damaged blade.
•

•
Maintain cut angle of 30º.
•
Do not over heat blades when sharpening.
Blade Balance:
Maintain blade balance at 5/8 oz-in (19.4 g-cm) or
less. Failure to keep blades balanced causes excess
vibration, wear and shortened life of most components
of the machine.
To balance a blade:
1.
Sharpen blade first
2. Balance the blade at the center.
3. Attach a 1/8 oz. (3.9 g) weight at a distance of 5”
(127mm) from center on the light end. This should
make the light end the heavy end.
- If it does, the blade is balanced.
- If it does not, file or grind the heavy end until
the addition of the weight makes the light end the
heavy end.
