If the blade bolt is worn or any recessed area is visible on the bolt, or

If Bushing fits loose in the Rotor Shaft.

Failure to replace abnormally worn bolts or bushings may lead to catastrophic failure of the blades and

ejection of the broken part which may cause serious bodily injury or death.

Always replace Blade Bolts with new bolts and new bushings whenever replacing the Blades. To tighten bolts

and nuts, first apply thread lock to nut. Make sure to tighten bolts and nuts just enough to allow the blades to

swing freely, and not bend the cuttershaft lugs. If cuttershaft lugs are bent together because of over tightening

the blades will not swing freely. OPS-U-0043
