Crossbar Removal - Woods BW10.52 Operator's Manual

CROSSBAR REMOVAL

WARNING
■ Crossbars are heavy and can cause muscle
strain or back injury. Use lifting aids and proper
lifting techniques when handling.
1. It is necessary to gain access to bottom side of cutter
for crossbar removal. See Blocking Method page 21.
NOTE: You will need to use either the puller screw
(Item 6, Figure 15) or a small hydraulic jack to re-
move the crossbar.
2. Remove blades from crossbar as shown in Figure 14.
