The Blade Guide System
In general usage it is advisable to carefully apply silicon
spray to the blade guides to ensure free movement of the
rollers, do not use oil or grease for lubrication as this will
attract dust and cause the rollers to jam. The blade guide
system is a consumable item and depending on usage will
wear and need replacing.
When replacing components on the upper guide assembly
first ensure that the blade is removed. Undo screws
(Fig. 14.5, A) & then remove the whole assembly. Individual
components can then be changed
Once the new components have been changed & the upper
guide assembly refitted the blade should be refitted and
the guides adjusted.
When replacing components on the lower guide assembly
first ensure that the blade is removed. Undo screws
(Fig. 14.6, A) & then remove the blade guard. You are now
able to remove nut (Fig. 14.6, B) & remove the whole
assembly. Individual components can now be changed.
Once the new components have been changed & the lower
guide assembly & blade guard refitted the blade should
be refitted.
