2.1 – ROTATING KNIFE HOLDER & SHAFT ASSEMBLY
Insert CX008341 1/2” x 3” long keystock (supplied with rotating holder) into the CB006040 FLYWHEEL
SHAFT keyway, with the notched corner of the key to the inside shoulder of the shaft keyway (Figure 2-
1). This is necessary to provide clearance between the key and machined radius of the shaft keyway.
NOTE: Always use an anti-seize lubricating compound (such as E-Z Break) prior to pressing the holder
onto the shaft. This prevents the shaft from galling and binding to the rotating knife holder.
With the key inserted into the shaft keyway, press the rotating knife holder onto the shaft, aligning the
keyways (Figures 2-2, 2-3). Press the rotating holder onto the shaft until it rests against the shaft
shoulder.
2.2 – SPACER PLATE INSTALLATION
Install CB011789 Spacer Plate as shown in Figure 2-4, making sure it rests against the knife holder with the notch
aligned with the knife pocket.
