Chopper Rotor Blades-Replacing

CAUTION: Shut OFF engine, set parking brake and remove key.

Chopper blades are sharp.

NOTE: Worn blades increase power consumption and chopper quality is reduced.

Remove lock nut (A), cap screw (B), bushings (C), blades (D) and spacers (E).

NOTE: If removing blades or bushings for inspection purposes, be certain to reinstall blades on SAME support from which they were removed. This must be done to maintain balance. It is a good practice to individually mark each blade before removal.

Inspect and if needed replace bushings. See your John Deere dealer for replacement parts.

IMPORTANT: Chopper balance MUST be maintained. Replace opposite blade to maintain balance.

NOTE: Reverse blades for additional usage, or replace blades if worn on both sides.

Install spacers, bushing, blades, cap screws and tighten lock nut to specification.
