OTHER THAN THAT SPECIFIED BY CUMBERLAND. Substitution of improper screws
could lead to premature failure, equipment damage, and serious injury to personnel.
When regrinding the knives, you may re-use the same screws and washers but do not re-use them
more than six times. When installing new knives, replace the screws and washers with those
furnished by the factory.
