For precise setting of the measurement always move the back gauge from the back towards the knife.

∙Side guide (#16)
The side guide (#16) in combination with the back gauge allow a square alignment of paper pile to be cut.
IMPORTANT – Please note that cutting accuracy depends on precise alignment of the paper against the side and back gauges and proper tightening of the paper clamp.
∙Thermal overload switch (#10)
If the motor should be subjected to excessive strain (e.g. continuous cutting of strong cardboard with a dull knife), the power supply to the motor will be interrupted by the thermal overload switch (#10).
The overload button will pop out a few mm. After a short cooling down period, the overload button can be reset again.
Maintenance
Knife change
Precise cuts are only possible with a sharp knife. The knife should be changed as soon as the quality and the accuracy of a cut are not in accordance with the standards expected from this cutting machine. Knife life with normal paper is approximately 20 working hours; of course, this will vary with different types of paper.
We recommend the purchase of a spare knife, so that a sharp knife is always available. This ensures that your machines remains operative even if the original knife has to be sent away for re- sharpening. Look for a professional re
