I normally put the lift cylinders in float to take pressure off the pin. Then unlock it then use the side shift to move the circle over. If it doesn't line up I also use the blade slide to get it far enough over....just wondering what machines are you guys all driving.
I normally flip the switch and then wiggle the sideshift lever to get it too come out. From there everything gets slid to wherever necessary to get it lined up to where it'll pop in again. I just got used to doing it that way for changing blades in the shop. You don't end up marking up the floor that way. I run a Volvo 940B and sometimes a Deere 770G. My boss normally runs the Deere, but when one machine is down for whatever reason then he pulls out the 140.
