WC68 Operator’s Manual
4. Use a 17 mm socket/wrench to loosen the three (3) M10 X 25 mm hex bolts securing the
bed plate to the lower flywheel housing so the bed plate is free to slide in and out. This
movement will increase or decrease the gap between the bed plate and the cutting edge
of the blade. Slide the bed plate by gripping the knob and adjust its position so that it is
within 1/16
‑
1/8” (1.5
‑
3.0 mm) of the cutting edge of the blade. Ensure the gap is uniform
along the entire edge of the blade.
5. Torque the three (3) M10 X 25 mm bed plate hex bolts to 40 ft•lb (54 N•m) once the gap
has been set correctly.
6. Rotate the flywheel by hand and note the gap at each blade. Again, the gap should be
no more or less than 1/16
‑
1/8” (1.5
‑
3.0 mm) at each blade edge.
7. Close the upper flywheel housing and secure it to the lower housing by reinstalling the
M16 X 40 mm bolt and flat washer.
