4.5.4 Discblades

Each disc has two blades (A) attached at opposite ends that
are free to rotate horizontally on a specially designed
A
shoulder bolt.
The blade (A) has two cutting edges and can be flipped over
so that the blade does not need replacing as often.
The blades are NOT repairable and must be replaced if
severely worn or damaged.
IMPORTANT:
Always use factory replacement parts.
