REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION PROCEDURE FOR REPLACING OR FLIPPING BLADES
1.
Set the Brush Cutter flat on the ground. Turn the skid loader engine off to disconnect the hydraulic hoses
from the loader. Then, safely disconnect the Brush Cutter from the loader.
2.
Remove the blade service door to expose the access hole in the deck.
3.
Lift the front door weldment and secure it with a strap. Then, rotate the blade carrier until the blade-
attaching nuts are aligned in the access hole.
4.
From the top of the deck, insert a socket through the access hole onto one of the three blade nuts and
remove it. Repeat on the other two nuts.
5.
Remove the blade and blade hockey puck.
6.
Replace, flip or sharpen the blade.
7.
Reinstall the blade and blade hockey puck, aligning with the thru holes on the blade carrier.
8.
Install the bolts from the bottom-up and tighten the nuts through the access hole on the top of the deck.
9.
Repeat the above process on all 3 remaining blades.
NOTE: Only use genuine PREMIER Ammbusher replacement parts. It is recommended to flip all blades at the
same time. Blades should be replaced in pairs on opposite sides of the blade carrier to maintain balance.
Remember that one pair should always be face-up, with the other face-down.
