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 where the bear- ing block rests. These were included at the factory when they calibrated your cutterhead to be even with the outfeed table. Your new cutterhead may or may not need these. If you see any shims, carefully pull them off and set them aside for later use—or keep them with your cutterhead in the event that you Re-install it later. Also, mark the side of the cutterhead where they were used, so the future install will go smoothly.
