1. Chopper tip
2. Using a hack saw, cut a slot in the sheared end of
the bolt and into the chopper tip (Figure 38). Make
sure the slot is deep enough to engage a straight
bladed screw driver.
3. After completing the slot, heat the sheared bolt with
a torch to soften the Loctite (Figure 38).
4. Once the Loctite is softened, thread the sheared
bolt out of chopper tip (Figure 38).
5. When installing used or new chopper tips, always
use new bolts with a patch lock feature or treat the
bolt threads with Loctite.
