When replacing the blades, do they have to be manually aligned or do they just fit in one specific spot..easy or difficult?

I haven't had to change blades, but I think they are self aligning Do a search and you might find a video showing the procedure.

These blades are very easy to install. They install exactly like the original OEM blades. They are each held on by one 9/16" (14mm) bolt. Once the old blades are off, you simply line up the star pattern on the blade with the star pattern on the mandrel, and screw in the bolt. I don't know the specified torque, so you will have to look that up prior to doing your install.

Really easy actually. I slapped myself once I realized this. Simply push up on the blade (black side up). The assembly comes right off for easy cleaning and oiling like the illusive picture recommends. Hope this helps!

It is easy (I'd youtube the videos because I'm a visual learner) BUT, I would caution you when changing the blades. Obviously you wouldn't put your fingers on the part where the razors stick out. But, even the sides of the razor (the unsharpened sides) can still cut your fingers if you put pressure on them when unscrewing the head.

I think it depends on your application. If you're replacing an exact duplicate - it's very easy. If you're building from scratch you just make it fit. If you're replacing another model or brand it could be very difficult.

When I replaced mine it was kinda of difficult. There are several screws that have to be removed and then a confession pin that has to be taken out. I reused the pin from the unit it fit tighter when installing the new part and gear. I watched a video on YouTube that made the whole process a lot smoother. Not difficult just time consuming.

Mine was very tight the first time I put on a new blade, after that, it was much easier. Just stick with the counter clock wise

There is a bolt on each side. The blades have three position holes. Loosen the bolt and move to a different hole.

Please check the specs for the types of blades included with the unit. I have not changed them, but from what I have read, and what I can see, the blades seem very easy to change.

The blade is a light press fit on the motor shaft. Hold the motor with one hand, pull the old blade off the motor shaft with your other hand. Reverse the process to install. Take care to support the motor, the mounting brackets are very light and can bend easy.

Yes, it's as simple as just screwing down the two screws. Shouldn't take more than one minute to replace the blade.

It's very easy. There are three pieces that come apart. Unscrew the handle from the top part and remove all three. The blade fits in between the top two pieces and the handle locks the all together when you screw it back in. Hope this helps.

They do line up but the alignment is super testy. Tighten the first screw (doesn't matter which one you start with) just a little bit to start. Then go around to each screw doing a little bit at a time until they're all tightened. (Like you're changing a car tire) If you tighten one too much it'll throw off the alignment of the other holes.

Mine will adjust for both blades to go in or out. Your questions sounds like you are asking if 1 will go in while the other goes out - it will not do that.

No you have to get different length blades for each side. one blade does not fit all.

These new-style blades are a unit unto themselves. You simply replace the whole unit.

Yes. As easy as loosening one nut, removing one bolt, moving blades out and replacing the bolt and nut.
