3. Turn the reel blades slowly by hand in the direction shown by the arrow in figure 6 and check
if the paper is cut as the first reel blade passes. Repeat this process for the entire length of the
fixed blade and the paper should cut cleanly and evenly. The blades act like a scissor.
4. If the paper is not cut cleanly and evenly, use a 4mm Hex Allen key (D) and turn it clockwise
approximately 1/8th of a turn to tighten the adjustment bolt (E) on both side until the reel blades
lightly brushes the fixed blade.
5. If the reel blades and fixed blade make in contact and it becomes difficult to turn the reel blades
by hand, use hexagon allen key and turn it anticlockwise to loosen the adjustment bolt on both
sides. Repeat step 2 & 3 for checking.
NOTE:
• The adjustment bolts should be equally adjusted to avoid misalignment between the reel blades
and the fixed blade.
• Do not overtighten the adjustments bolts as this could damage the fixed blade.
Cleaning and Storage
