6.Wearing heavy leather gloves, carefully remove the cutterhead from the casting (see
Figure 5).
Note: Your cutterhead may have paper shims stuck to the bearing block or the part of the casting where the bearing block rests. These were included at the factory when they cali- brated your cutterhead even with the outfeed table. If you see these, carefully pull them off and set them aside for later use, or keep them with your cutterhead in the event that you reinstall it later. Also, mark the side of the cutterhead where they were used, so the future install will go smoothly. Your new cutterhead may or may not need these.
