Remove the bolts. Then remove the cutting edge and the end bits.
Thoroughly clean all contact surfaces.
Inspect the opposite side of the cutting edge. If the opposite side of the cutting edge is not worn, turn the opposite side of the cutting edge outward and install the cutting edge.
If both sides of the cutting edge are worn, install a new cutting edge section. Note: When the cutting edge is within 10 mm (0.4 inch) of the bottom of the support, change the cutting edge. Do not allow wear to occur on the support.
If the bottom edge or the outside edge of the end bit is worn, install a new end bit. Note: When the end bit is within 10 mm (0.4 inch) of the bottom of the support, change the end bit. When the end bit is within 10 mm (0.4 inch) of the outside edge of the support, change the end bit. Do not allow any wear to occur on the support.
