How To Use The Slitting Component
6
AFTER THE PANEL IS NOTCHED
1. Park the slitter blade on the side of the table opposite your position. NEVER push slitter blade across the panel to shear,
ALWAYS pull slitter across the panel towards you.
2. Slide the notched panel down the table to the slitter.
3. Adjust the slitter to the desired slope.
4. Pull the slitter across the panel slowly and smoothly. Trying to cut too fast may compromise the quality of cut.
Note:
If oil canning occurs, raise the slitter blade.
ADJUSTING SLITTER BLADE
The Slitter Blade will only need to be adjusted when changing panel thicknesses. For thicker panels, drop blade down, for
thinner panels raise the slitter blade.
1. Using a

/
16
wrench, loosen the lock bolt.
2. Loosen the nut between the aluminum post and the metal frame.
3. Depending on blade depth, loosen the bolt to tighten the nut or vice versa. Repeat the same steps on the opposite side of
the slitter.
4. Tighten the lock bolt on both sides prior to use.
Never go above an 1/8" reveal. Slitter is not intended to cut through ribs.
ADJUSTING FOR DESIRED ANGLE
1. Unclamp the Vice Grip beneath the Table
2. Adjust to the angle needed
3. Tighten the clamp on the Vice grip and lock into place
Maximum cutting angle - 60 inches
