 “Single Wheel Slitter” 

Operating & Instruction Manual 

 

Introduction: 
 

The Gary Machinery Single Wheel Slitter is thoroughly inspected before leaving our plant.  This 
includes running material through the unit to be sure that all components are operating properly 
and that a satisfactory cut can be made. 
 
To simplify the machine set up and to maintain proper operating, the following recommended 
set-up steps have been outlined.  Please read these carefully, and if any questions arise, call us 
at any time.   
 
 

Opening the Carton: 

 
The Single Wheel Slitters are shipped in a heavy carton.  The machine weight is just under 300 
lbs. so whatever handling means are employed, 

care must be exercised

 to avoid personal strain 

or equipment overload.  Once the slitter is removed, the unit should be checked for damages 
that may have occurred during transit.   
 
If a means of overhead lifting is available, machine may be removed from the shipping container 
using the eyebolt provided. A slight rearward tilt is normal. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
If overhead lifting is not available, carton may be cut away and machine handled using extended 
rods at each end as carrying handles. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

NOTE

: The plywood base to which the machine is attached for shipping may be removed as 

desired.  However, if optional support stand has been ordered, the board will serve as a top for 
the stand and should be retained.
