PSA: My old method for checking cutterhead wear almost cost me a pump in Mobile Bay
For years I just eyeballed the teeth and ran it until something felt wrong, but last month the suction line started shaking so bad we had to shut down for two days. The boss showed me how to use a depth gauge every 50 hours to measure tooth loss, and it turns out I was running them 30% past the safe point. How often do you guys actually measure your cutter wear versus just going by feel?
