8-4 About Blade Life
Cutting conditions and blade life vary according to the hardness of the media and the usage environment. Making the
settings for the conditions described below does not automatically guarantee attractive cutting results in all situations.
Before performing actual cutting, be sure to carry out a cutting test and make any necessary adjustments. (See "3-1
Points to Check Before Performing Output.")
If the media is not cut through completely even when the tool force is increased by 50 to 60 gf more than the tool force
values shown below, it means that the useful life of the blade has ended. Replace with a new blade.
