Adjustment Plates
Do not remove the adjustment plates from the lower jaw during routine blade rotation or
replacement. These plates are custom-machined for each shear and need only be replaced when
lost, damaged or extremely worn.
Inspect the top of each adjustment plate and seat for burrs, nicks or other imperfections that may
prevent proper seating of the blades and cause errant blade gap readings. Clean the adjustment
plates as necessary.
Replacement plates can be ordered from your Genesis dealer or the Genesis Parts Department
with the serial number of your shear. Because adjustment plates are serial number specific and
custom machined, Genesis recommends ordering and keeping an extra set on-hand to reduce
downtime.
Offset dowel or fastener holes are located in each adjustment plate. When replacing adjustment
plates, make sure these holes are aligned with the corresponding holes in the blade seat.
Do not grind blade seat areas.
Rotation
Rotate blades when the cutting edges are worn to a 1/8” (3 mm) radius.
Recommended rotation intervals are approximately 40-80 hours, depending on the material being
processed. Thin materials may require shorter rotation intervals. Blades must be replaced when all
four edges are worn to 1/8” (3 mm) radius.
