: I had to sharpen the blades for a shredder that : I bought. However, I have a question. When I : removed the blades, they were loose. Are the blades : suppose to be loose? Because I tighten them when : I installed them. Would this make a difference in cutting. : Please advise. : Thanks The cutter blades are supposed to be free swinging so that if they hit a solid object they can deflect or move to keep from breaking. The rotating force keeps them out straight in normal operation. Be sure that the bolts are good and tight the cutter blades rotate on a shoulder. they should swing free with the bolts tight. Be careful these machines are dangerous. Good Luck
