1.
With the power disconnected from the machine. Remove the cutter head
cover, and the dust shute.
2
Loosen the tooth with the special
allen key.
2.
Lift the tooth and rotate to the
new cutting face.
Note.
Take special care to clean
the tooth and its mating surface.
Any dirt or sawdust that is trapped
under the tooth will cause it to be
at a different height to the other
teeth and degrade the surface finish
when you start machining. This
will result in you having to take all
the teeth out, and clean the teeth, and the mating surfaces again. This is very
frustrating and a waste of time, take your time and ensure that you are very
thorough with cleaning.
3.
Lower the tooth into the cutter head and clamp with the allen key.
Note.
Only move all the teeth to a new cutting edge. Do not move less than all
the teeth.
Note.
The carbide cutter head has several advantages over the parallel blade
type cutter head.
1.
The teeth are carbide and will last longer than high speed steel parallel
blades.
2
. There is less chance of tare out.
The disadvantage is that they are initially more expensive and that the surface
finish is slightly wavy. This is caused because the teeth have a very slight
radius. This waviness is easily removed by a light sanding.
