I was going to try that up in the lift structure frame, but I didn't have the adapter/socket combination I needed to employ my multiplier.
I did find, since it was dam difficult to cut them all off perpendicular in that lift channel, that any cut down thru the outer collar loosened its grip on...
Yea I may wind up doing the vertical slice thing, just because they are back in a channel. Which means I will have to swap discs more often to be able to reach the back of the channel thru the huck. I will try some this weekend, but have a lot of dirt to move.
Love my cordless tools, but...
Yea the ones in the forward lift structure are kinda tight and surrounded by structure. I may have to work the disc up from the bottom and cur two at a time as there isn’t room to get to just one at a time… and of course some knucklehead did one set with the hucks on the inside of the frame...
98… You have to cut right thru where hex and collar meet(shave the top of the hex head) to bypass all the thread in the collar… I was expecting to have to unleash an air impact on the nut after I cut the collar, so them falling apart was a pleasant surprise… Will probably cut a few more today:)
Actually I just discovered it is not a nut with a locking collar… Removed 3 in just a few minutes with a angle grinder and a cutoff wheel. As soon as I cut thru the shank they went “Tink” and literally fell off… Like Olly said cut all the way thru the shank right where the hex head meets the...
Well that's the whole point, once the collar is out of the way its just a nut. The trick is doing it cleanly without damaging the threads. a cutoff should be able to give a clean cut threads and all that will allow the nut to unscrew.
A plasma sure isnt going to do that….
Those hydraulic...
If I was cutting it like that, I would cut both the collar and bolt/threads off clean. Will start with that using a cutoff wheel…
I have a cut-50 and it is only good for about 3/8”… If I try it I might try cutting parallel with the bolt thru the nut and collar on opposite sides, then knock...
