Maintenance of the Cutting Tool
CAUTION
Be careful not to injure yourself when you handle the blade of the cutting
tool.
Cleaning of the Blade
Chippings and wastes of double-sided tape used for securing a cutting material attach to the blade of the
cutting tool. After cutting is finished, remove the chippings etc. from the blade by using the cleaning brush
provided as an accessory or a commercially available cleaner.
Filing of the Securing Section
Periodically grind the section that secures the cutting tool by using a sandpaper etc.
When the cutting tool has been used for a long time, it may not come off easily of the collet. This is because
repeated cutting tool removal and installation leave traces of tightening by the securing set screw on the
cutting tool, and the traces are caught by the inserting section of the collet. Periodically file the cutting tool;
if such a trace is left unattended, the cutting tool may not come off.
