Blade Installation
1. Disconnect the unit from air supply and turn power switch off.
2. Remove the four socket head screws (use 7/64 hex wrench)
located at the corners of the front cover plate.
5. Install the blade halves. Insert the #4-40 button head cap
screw (use 1/16 hex wrench) and lock washers but do not
tighten completely.
6. Back out all (6) set screws (use .050 hex wrench) located at
the bottom of the blade holder.
WARNING: Keep fingers away from the blade area.
7. Connect air supply and turn power switch on. Switch the AUTO
SET-UP switch to the SET-UP position. This will close all blades
firmly.
8. Check all blade sets for gaps. Adjust blade set screws accord-
ingly to ensure proper seating of blade sets. Care must be taken
not to over extend any one blade. This will result in gaps in
remaining blade sets.
9. With blades properly adjusted, tighten all blade holding screws.
10. Reconnect air line to the face plate
by inserting hose into the com-
pression fitting firmly.
11. Reinstall front cover plate, making
sure clamp dowel pins are
properly aligned with the clamp
yoke (Item 22)*.
12. Securely tighten the front cover
plate screws.
13. Turn AUTO/SET-UP switch to the AUTO position.
NOTE: Anytime blade adjustments are made, it is helpful to
back out the blade set screws.
3. Remove the front
cover plate. For
better access, dis-
connect the air line
leading to the face
plate by pushing in
red ring on connec-
tor.
4. Install the matched die type blades behind the
appropriate wire guides. Note that blade pairs have
been carefully matched and should remain as a set.
DO NOT MIX BLADES. Blades should be mounted
with the etched “HA” part
numbers facing outwards
on both halves. The 3-digit
serial numbers face inward.
Knife-type blades are not
serialized and can be locat-
ed with beveled surface
facing either direction.
Insure that both male and
female blade halves are of
the same part numbers.
