BLADE SERVICING

Inspect blades before each use to determine that they are properly installed and in good condition. Replace any blade that is bent, excessively nicked, worn, or has any other damage. Small nicks can be ground out when sharpening.

WARNING Use only original equipment blades on this cutter. They are made of special heat-treated alloy steel. Substitute blades may not meet specifications and may be dangerous.

DANGER!	Replace bent or broken blade with new blades. NEVER ATTEMPT TO STRAIGHTEN OR
	WELD ON BLADES SINCE THIS WILL LIKELY CRACK OR OTHERWISE DAMAGE THE
	BLADE WITH SUBSEQUENT FAILURE AND POSSIBLE SERIOUS INJURY FROM
	THROWN BLADES. (SGM-10)

DANGER Inspect Blades daily for abnormal wear. If Blades have a notch worn into the leading edge at the lower bend more than a 1/2" DEEP (due to running in gravel and/or the ground), REPLACE BOTH BLADES ON THAT CARRIER IMMEDIATELY. Failure to replace such abnormally worn blades may lead to catastrophic failure of the blade and ejection of the broken part with tremendous force which may cause bodily injury or death!

1/2" MAXIMUM

Original Blade Edge

NOTE: Replace Blades in pairs after no more than 1/2" notch wear!
