6). Now you are working on the other (rear) blade frame remaining
attached on the machine frame.
Warning:
−
Do not unscrew more than 4 blades at the same time to avoid the
breaking of the other blades. Place and tight first the 3 new blades
leaving a blade space to unscrew and pull out 4 other blades in a more
safety way. Then place and tight this time the next 4 new blades. Go on
to change blades, 4 by 4, until all of them have been replaced.
−
You can appreciate the tension of the blade by comparison with the
closer one in place.
−
Don’t tight too much. A good torque is about 2.5 to 3 mN.
−
Now, operate on the front frame. Change the blades four by four as
previous steps. When finished, pivot the front frame to the vertical
position and screw the plastic connecting rod.
−
Check the alignment of blades between the 2 frames, in a same level at
+/-0.5 mm.
−
Check the distance between blades to avoid friction with the pressing
plate. Act on the small blade levers if necessary.
