Why Centering and Tightening a Speedplate is Important
It's very important to tighten this wheel very tight. And the reason is the center is probably not perfectly in the center of this manhole frame. So if you were to rotate this entire speed plate, the center would move. And that moving is going to put everything in a bind. And you're going to see excessive wear on the teeth and the blades. So if you're cutting in this speed plates moving just a little bit that's fine. But if it starts to move 2530 degrees you need to stop cutting and tighten this tighter.
