Blade Sharpening - Alamo RX96 Operator's Manual

BLADE SHARPENING

Always sharpen both blades at same time to maintain balance. Follow original sharpening pattern as shown in
Figure Mnt-R-0008. Always sharpen blades by grinding. DO NOT heat and pound out edge. Do not sharpen
blade to a razor edge, but leave a 1/16" blunt edge. Do not sharpen back side of blade.
Avoid personal injury. Always block the cutter up to prevent if from falling when the blades
and/or carrier are being serviced.
Do not heat or weld on hard surface blades as this can alter material strength causing
blades to fail in a hazardous manner that could cause injury.
