and bedknife screw tool (see Special Tools in this chap-
ter). Discard screws. Remove bedknife from the bedbar

Bedknife Installation
1. Use scraper to remove all rust, scale and corrosion
from bedbar surface. Lightly oil bedbar surface before
installing bedknife.
2. Make sure that

to the threads of new screws. Take care to keep anti-
seize lubricant from taper on screw heads.

en screws into the bedbar.
