Maintenance and repair service

 

If the blade is chipped and cannot cleave fiber, rotate the 
blade in “Manual rotation” and use the cleaver avoiding the 
chipped area of the blade. For rotating operation, please 
refer to “Switching of blade rotating operations.” 

Caution 

Do not remove the pin which holds the blade and cleaver 
body. Do not remove the blade rotating mechanism either. 
The blade will not rotate or the blade height will change, 
causing loss of cleaving performance.

 

Caution 

The FC-6R must be time for maintenance after 1 year of use 
or when it cannot cleave fiber. (You will be charged for blade 
replacement.) Please return it to our service department 
when the time for maintenance comes.
