diablopilot 2 #2 February 24, 2005 Probably not a big deal as they are all converted to that condition when sent in for the 4 and/or 8 year service check-ups.---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are.

AirtecKai 0 #3 February 24, 2005 Hi Jerry, Cypres (1-pin) from 3/95 and younger have field replaceble cutters. 2-pin Cypres have field replaceble cutters since 5/99. Regards, Kai Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
councilman24 36 #4 February 24, 2005 No there not. Only on request and at additional charge are they changed. See text below from Airtec site. Also the dates for the original question are here. "If a new field replaceable cutter is desired, is this included in the maintenance charge? No, this will be charged in addition to the maintenance cost. We are often asked if we can exchange the old-style cutter to the new field-replaceable type. This is not an update and is not included in the maintenance procedure. An existing old-style cutter cannot be modified to the new field-replaceable type. However, should a customer specifically request that we do exchange the cutter, then we are able to remove the old cutter and install the new one. Should we do this, it is necessary for us to charge the cost of the new cutter to the customer. New units are equipped with the field replaceable cutter in the 1-pin version since February 1995 and the 2-pin version since May 1999."I'm old for my age.

mr2mk1g 10 #5 February 24, 2005 I don't think you should worry about whether or not your cutter is field replaceable.
