Figure 11 17 13 1 CHANGING REPLACING THE KNIVES If the knives are worn out or another knife thickness is required the knives should be changed This is done as follows see Figure 11 A Make sure that the Verti Cut is blocked well and cannot move on its own o P 5 6 7 8 accord Make sure that the PTO is detached from the Verti Cut Remove all nuts 1 and the safety cap 2 Remove the bottom cover 3 Loosen the tension of the V belts 4 and remove the V belts from the bottom pulley 5 Lift the machine and loosen the centre bearing 6 together with the spacers 7 by removing the fastening bolts Make sure that the Verti Cut is blocked well and cannot move on its own accord Lower the machine onto the ground and remove the bolts from the bearings 8 on both sides of the machine Lift the machine and remove the rotor axle 9 Watch out the knives may be sharp Remove the nut 10 from the rotor axle 9 and remove the knives 11 centre bushes 12 end bush 13 and the centre bearing 6 Reconstruct the rotor axle by sliding the knives in a spiral and stepped way onto the axle Take the following into account the centre bearing 6 is at distance A 679mm or 26 7 and the welded side of the bearing house must face the side of the rotor axle nut2. Figure 10 The Verti Cut is standard equipped with adjustable tension pulleys that keep the V belts taut Depending on the intensity of using the machine wear and tear can occur to the driveline resulting in slipping of the V belts These V belts should then be tightened Adjusting the tension pulley is done as follows see Figure 10 A Make sure that the Verti Cut is blocked well and cannot move on its own accord Make sure that the PTO is detached from the Verti Cut Remove all nuts 1 and the safety cap 2 Loosen the lock nut 3 Loosen the nut 4 slightly so that the tension is just off Adjust the nut 5 and adjust with this the tension of the V belts by moving the tension pulley Check the tension of the V belt by pushing point A with a pressure of 5 kg 11 lbs The stretch should be 6 8 mm 0 27 Tighten the nut 4 Tighten the lock nut 3 Return the safety cap 2 to its location and mount all nuts 1 Qc ON 16 C3N Ie NE TA lt Ny p N NG J Welded side housing center bearing facing nut 10
