CAUTION:Be careful to grasp the blade on the shank, and not on the cutting edge.

Step 4: Insert the new blade.

Step 5: Reconnect the two parts of the stylus holder:

Push the blade holder as far down as possible, then turn it clockwise, until you feel the threads engage. Turn until the stylus protrudes from the opening, as shown in Figure B-2 on page B-4.

Step 6: Adjust the blade depth. Follow the instructions in Adjusting the Cut Depth on page B-4.

Step 7: Reinstall the stylus holder. Seat it in the mechanism, then turn it counter-clockwise until it is securely seated.

Cleaning the Stylus

Clean the stylus with Isopropyl alcohol and a cotton-tip swab. These are the same materials you use to clean the print head on your printer, described in Cleaning your system on page 2-13.(You may already have purchased a cleaning kit with your printer.)
