THE ALUMINIUM SQUARING ARM (Advanced Rotary Cutter only, 76cm (30") and above)
Those machines with cut lengths 76cm (30") and above are fitted with an additional aluminium squaring arm and
sliding measuring stop.
To fix the scales, firstly remove the measuring stop. Pass a rule under
the clamping strip and measure from the cutting edge 250mm for the
metric scale or 10" for the Imperial scale and make a small pencil mark
on the squaring arm. Affix the self -adhesive scale to align the 250mm or
10" graduation with the pencil mark. The plain sticker fits inside the
groove of the squaring arm and covers the two fixing screws. With a
sharp blade trim the excess from the end of the scale.
An extended Squaring Arm is available as an optional extra.

the positions of the fixing holes, remove the Cutter to a safe
position. Make a starting hole for each of the screws using a
small drill or a pointed tool. It is essential that the starting
holes are accurately positioned to prevent any distortion of
the Cutter when fixing it in place.
Position the Cutter back onto the table edge and fix it down
using the countersink screws supplied.
Fix a piece of 3mm MDF, PVC foamboard, or similar material
to the table top as shown to bring the table surface in line
with the base plate level of the Cutter.
Remove the red plastic protective cover from the fixed blade
before use.
OPERATION
Park the sliding cutting head at either end of the machine which will release the clear plastic clamp strip. Slide the
material to be cut under the clamp strip and align it as required. Slide the cutting head which will automatically clamp
the work while cutting through it.
Using your free hand to apply downward pressure on heavy board or multiple sheets will help to prevent any
movement during cutting and ensure a very straight cut.
