Grinder Maintenance

Replacing the Teeth

Service Interval: Before each use or daily—Check the
condition of the teeth; rotate or replace
any that are worn or damaged and torque
the nuts for all teeth.
Due to the high amount of wear placed on the teeth, you need
to rotate and replace them periodically
you rotate or replace them, inspect each tooth holder on the
wheel, including the flat lands that prevent the teeth from
rotating. If the tooth holder is damaged, replace the wheel.
Torque the nuts 68 N∙m (50 ft-lb) for any teeth that you are
not rotating or replacing.

1. Sharp tooth
Each tooth is indexed with 3 positions so you can rotate
it twice, exposing a new sharp edge before replacing the
tooth. To rotate a tooth, loosen the nut securing the tooth
(Figure 21). Push the tooth forward and rotate it 1/3 of a
turn, bringing an unused edge to the outside. Torque the nut
securing the tooth to 68 N∙m (50 ft-lb).
To replace a tooth, remove the nut securing the tooth, then
install a new tooth, washer, and nut in the same position
(Figure 21). Torque the nut securing the tooth to 68 N∙m
(50 ft-lb).
