5. Pull the Cut Stick Puller at a slight angle
(Figure 4-7) over the cut stick until the end
of the cut stick comes out of the table.
6. Remove the remaining cut stick from the ta-
ble by hand.
7. Inspect the cut stick for wear. It may be
used 8 times (twice on each surface) before
disposal. To use a surface twice, reinstall
the cut stick by turning it such that the end
that came out of the right end of the slot
goes into the left end of the slot. If a surface
has been used twice, rotate the stick to an
unused surface before reinstalling (Figure
4-8). If all (4) surfaces have been used
twice, replace the stick with a new one.

8. Firmly press the new or rotated cut stick all
the way down into the slot. The top of the
cut stick should be flush with the table.
9. Securely close the upper rear doors.
