Shredder Assembly Instructions

Replacing Blade Spacers

Refer to Figure 4:

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 (#1) following steps 1-5.

Order spacers (#1) and locknuts (#8) 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 (#1) are not used if vertical movement at the blade tip is 3/4" or less without spacers. However, spacers are required if vertical movement at the blade tips are greater than 3/4".

1.Check blade deflection. If vertical deflection at the blade tip is greater than 3/4", remove blade bolt (#4) and reassemble using a thicker spacer (#1). 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 (#4) through blade bushing (#2), spacer (#1), lower cutting blade (#6, #7 or #8), blade carrier (#3), upper flat cutting blade (#10 or #9), spacer (#1) and blade bushings (#2). Temporarily secure blade with a plain hex nut (Plain hex nut furnished by customer.) Draw nut up snug. Do not tighten.

3.Check blade vertical movement. If movement at the blade tip is greater than 3/4", remove blade bolt and reassemble as before except use a thicker spacer.

4.Once blade deflection is correct, replace plain nut with supplied locknut (#5) & torque to 450 ft-lbs.

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