Shredder Assembly Instructions

Replacing Blade Spacers

Refer to Figure 5:

The cutting blades should not have more than 3/4" free vertical movement at the blade tips. If vertical movement exceeds 3/4", install or change to thicker spacers (#3) following steps 1 through 5.

Order spacers (#3) and locknuts (#7) from your nearest Land Pride Dealer.

IMPORTANT: Read “Safety Information” on page 1 before disassembling the shredder blades.

IMPORTANT: Locknuts can lose their ability to lock properly once removed. Always use a plain throw away nut during pre-assembly of spacers.

IMPORTANT: Spacers (#3) are not required if vertical movement at blade tip is 3/4" or less without spacers. However, spacers are required if vertical movement at blade tip is greater than 3/4".

1.Check blade deflection. If vertical deflection at the blade tip is greater than 3/4", remove blade bolt (#6) and reassemble using thicker spacers (#3). Select spacer thickness based on deflection. The greater the deflection, the thicker the spacer.

2.Assemble blades by inserting 1"-8 x 4 1/2" GR8 hex head bolt (#6) through blade bushing (#4), spacer (#3), lower cutting blade (#8 or #10), blade carrier (#5), upper flat cutting blade (#9), spacer (#3) and blade bushings (#4). Temporary secure blade with a plain hex nut (Plain hex nut furnished by customer.)

Draw nut up snug. Do not tighten.

3.Check blade deflection. If deflection at the blade tips are greater than 3/4", remove blade bolt and reassemble as before except use thicker spacers.

4.Once blade deflection is correct, replace plain nut with supplied locknut (#7) & torque to 450 ft-lbs.

5.Repeat instructions for “Replacing Blade Spacers” for the remaining shredder blade assemblies.
