Figure 12 – Remove Cutter Wheel Assembly

c.While holding onto cutter wheel assembly, pull drive shaft out and lift cutter wheel assembly up through top of pivot arm (Figure 12). If necessary, lightly tap opposite end of square drive with ham- mer or wrench to start removal.

Figure 13 – Cutter Wheel Assembly

NOTE! For multi-piece cutter wheel remove hub on cut- ter wheel. Locate the three (3) allen screws with lock washers and remove with 1/4″ allen wrench (supplied with cutter). Remove cover plate to expose cutter wheel. Replace worn cutter wheel with new wheel (Figure 12). Replace cover plate and tighten allen screws with allen wrench.

d.Return cutter wheel assembly or new cutter wheel to the cutter. Align square drive shaft with hub assembly and insert until shoulder butts up against inner race of bearing. Place washer and lock-nut on reverse side of square drive. Tighten until lock- nut bottoms out against washer.

NOTE! Do not over-tighten lock-nut. When nut bot- toms out against washer, stop. Over-tightening can reduce wheel’s ability to turn, requiring more power from power drive, or it may cause wheel to not track during cut.

2.Cutter wheel should easily and freely rotate in either direction when lock-nut is properly tightened.

Transporting

1.The 258 and 258XL are designed with hand-holds located at top rear, and bottom of frame front, for transporting the cutter (Figure 14). Do not use pivot arm handle to transport, as it may cause damage to the hydraulic cylinder.

2.Remove 700 Power Drive to reduce weight when carrying.

WARNING

Two operators should carry the cutter when being moved to prevent personal injury.

Transporting Using The Transport Cart

A two wheeled cart is available as an accessory to allow for easier transporting. This transport cart, (see catalog for ordering information), is compatible with the 258 (21/2″ – 8″ ) as well as the 258XL (8″ – 12″ ). By using a “J” clamp on the top frame handle along with a hitch pin through a frame hole (Figure 14), the transport cart can easily be installed.

NOTE! Transport cart does not interfere with the oper- ation of the cutter and can remain attached.
