Installing the Knives
The knife attachments for both the fixed and rotating knives must be carefully
cleaned.

attachment.
2 Screw in the socket cap screws (E), so
that the support rule (F) lightly supports
the knife.
3 Press the knife firmly into the knife
attachment to bed it down.
NOTE: The screws in the rear of the
knife attachment are bonded in place.
NOTE: The knife has a fixed position
and no adjustment may be done.
4 Tighten screws (E), with alternating
tightening torque to 29.5lb-ft (40 Nm).
Install the rotating knives.
NOTE: When the rotating knives are installed in a granulator with open cutter, the knives must
always be pre-set before installation!
Pre-setting of knives for a granulator with open cutter is best done in a special pre-
setting jig. The jig is not included when the machine is delivered, but is a very
practical accessory which can be ordered. The jig and knife pre-setting is described
in Section 11.
