5.9 False Clamp Plate (Optional)
To prevent marking on pressure sensitive jobs, a false clamp plate is available as an optional item for
your machine. This plate attaches to the bottom of the clamp. It is secured with wing nuts on studs
that pass through the top of the clamp.
To install:
1. Make sure the knife and clamp is in the up position. If they are not, switch on the power, close the
front guard, and press the cut buttons. This will send the knife and clamp up.
2. Switch power off and disconnect the power cord.
3. Remove the rear cover and slide the false clamp plate under the knife and clamp (Figure 9) and
slide the plate up into position with the locator pins toward the front of the machine. The locator
pins insert into holes in the bottom front of the clamp.
CAUTION!
Do not rub your fingers up
the front side of the clamp. You may cut your fingertips.
4. Hold the plate in position and secure with the wing nuts provided.
NOTE
: The minimum cut with the false clamp plate attached is 1-
7/8”
