INSTRUCTIONS FOR REMOVAL OF FEED ROLLER
Unplug machine.
Take off chip deflector.
Raise head.
Remove pressure screws over swing arm to be removed.
Remove two 54-15 pivot screws and remove swing arm, leaving chain connected to mating sprocket.
Reinstall each pivot screw with a drop of medium strength thread locker.
Take P-111 sprocket off swing arm axle. Put the feed roller in a vise. Use a couple of small adjustable
wrenches attached to the flat on the long axle to loosen it. Machines with an optional feed kit may have
sprockets that have a different number of teeth and different part numbers.
Put a good square shank flat bladed screw driver into the slot on the short axle. Push in as hard as you can
while using a wrench on the square shank of the screw driver to loosen the short axle. Sometimes this axle
will not come out. Hack saw it off if it won’t. If you need to save the roller, pull the roller out of the swing
arm by lifting it up and pulling it out with the short axle still in the roller. Reset the roller in a vise and use a
small pipe wrench to remove it from the roller.
REASSEMBLY
The rollers are constructed with a shallow hole in one end and a deeper hole in the other.
The P-122 always goes in the short end. Reinstall the P-122 parts with two drops of medium strength thread
locker on the thread portion. If you don’t they will back up and jam your gear box.
The longer axle goes in the deeper end. See drawing for swing arm assembly with roller. Do not use thread
locker on this longer axle.
