Check the Blade Alignment

i

Notice! 

When the machine is put into operation for the first time, or following a move of equipment or a change of 

blades, it is advantageous to re-check the alignment of the blades in relationship to one another. For this 

purpose a dial gauge assembly (Part No. 8970208) is available as an option.

Check the blade alignment

1.  Move the blade carrier (1) to the middle of its range of travel.
2.  Affix the dial gauge assembly onto the threaded hole (2) in the blade carrier and screw tight with the knurled 

screw (4) provided. 

Ensure that the small spigot (5) mounted on the inside of the lever (6) locates correctly into the hole (3) provided 

in the blade carrier.

3.  Swing the lever (6) upwards until the tip of the gauge feeler (7) presses onto the upper blade (9) at 2 mm of the 

edge of the blade. Rotate the scale on the dial gauge until the pointer in the 1/100 mm division is lined up with the 

„0“ on the scale.

4.  Swing the lever (6) downwards until the tip of the gauge feeler (7) presses onto the lower blade (10) at 2 mm of 

the edge of the blade. The results achieved from measuring along the complete length of the lower blade may not 

vary by more than ±0.1 mm from the values obtained from the upper blade measurements.

5.  In the event of the values obtained by the above procedure being greater than ±0.1 mm, the servicing agent 

responsible for your machine should be contacted.

6.  Remove the dial gauge assembly.

Upper guide adjustment

1.  Using a pre-scored PCB, check the clearance „A“ between the upper guides (1,3) and the lower blade (4). The 

clearance should be set so that the edge of the upper guide is located correctly into the pre-scored groove of the 

PCB. The PCB can be smoothly moved backwards and forwards but cannot move sideways. 

The upper guides (1,3) prevent the PCB from slipping to the side and therefore ensures that it is not separated 

other than at the pre-scored groove.  

2.  As required, the clearance A should be adjusted as described above by turning the eccentric adjusters (2).
