Cutting Heads
Installation (continued)
This shoulder is necessary to mount these heads
securely and in the proper position. The diameter of
many mounting shoulders is 1” (25.4mm) and both
heads require this size. For mounting shoulder diam-
eters that are .79” (20mm), a special shim is included
in the package contents to provide the necessary
spacing.
A variety of adapters are provided to accommodate
mounting to Tanaka as well as other units (see
sizes listed below). To mount the “Fixed Line”
head, (Ref. 1), place the recessed side on to the
mounting shoulder of the gear case. When using
the 8mm nut, always use the 10mm washer.
The “Manual Feed” head
is mounted in the same
manner, except that the
“Cutter Holder” (Ref. 2-4
show below) must always
be used as shown in Ref.
2A & 2B.
