7.1 Cutter blade replacement
If the edge of the cutter becomes notched, chipped or curved after cutting a
plate, the blade must be replaced.
The cutter blade should be replaced regularly both to prevent transfer jams
and problems due to cutting errors, and to maximize the machine's overall
performance.
Always replace the blade after cutting two plate rolls and/or every 30 days
regardless of the number of plates cut.
Replacement procedure
1) Turn OFF the power switch.
2) Open the front door.
3) Remove the cutter unit cover.
4) Insert the cutter blade between
the cutter blade guides (upper
and lower) in the direction
indicated by the arrow in the
figure and secure it in the
designated position.
-Use the accompanying
cutter blade or NT cutter
blades (85 mm), which
are commercially available.
-Align the back side of the
cutter with the cutter
carriage guide and
tighten the set screw with
a coin.
5) Return the cutter unit, cover, and
front door to their original
positions. Turn ON the power
switch and check the cutter's
performance in the maintenance
mode.
Always be careful when handling the cutter blade. Wear safety gloves
to protect your hands from being cut.
