Replacing the Movable Cutting Blade
A spare movable cutting blade is located in
the accessory box. Replace the blade when it
becomes dull or nicked.
1. Unplug the machine.
2. Open both front and side covers.
3. Set the movable cutting blade (a) in its
engaged position and lock the movable
cutting blade. (See page 92.) Remove the
movable cutting blade by loosening the
bolt (b) with the wrench (c) found in the
accessory box.
4. Brush the fixed cutting blade and the
surrounding area to clean out any
accumulation of lint, etc.
Lower the movable cutting blade to its
lowest position by turning the flywheel
towards you. At this position, put a new
blade in place, making sure that the edge
of the blade is approximately 0.5 to 1.0
mm below the surface of the fixed cutting
blade (d). Tighten the bolt (b) firmly.
Unlock the movable cutting blade.
NOTE: The fixed cutting blade is made of a
special hard alloy and will not normally have
to be replaced.
