Guards

EasyCut guards are manufactured from heat treated spring steel with beveled cutting edges at the

top and bottom which make the guards cut well and last longer.

When replacing guards always mount the new guard with the SCH stamp to the top. Be sure the

spacer bar is on top of the cutter bar. The crimp-lock nut on the guard bolt should always be on top.

Alignment is critical. Before tightening the guard bolts, push the spacer bar as far back on the

cutter bar as possible and pull the guard ahead as far as possible. Sight down the cutter bar to be

sure the guards are aligned. Tighten guard bolts.

Sickle Sections

The sickle sections of the knife are installed with alternating cutting surfaces. One section will have

the cutting surface on the top and the next will have the cutting surface on the bottom. They must

be in good condition to obtain proper cutting.

Replace a Section:

1. Remove the guard to expose the

section.

-OR- 1. Turn the knife by hand until one section

bolt is exposed.

2. Unbolt the section and install a new

one.

2. Remove the bolt.

3. Tighten the section bolts and nuts. 3. Turn the knife until the other bolt is ex-

posed.

4. Install the guard. 4. Remove it, and install a new section by

reversing this procedure.

5. Tighten section bolts and nuts.

Always alternate the sickle sections, one with the serrations facing up, the next,

facing down.
