8.6  Cutter Controls 

Four push buttons control cutter operation. The two top 

push buttons activate the advance function. The bottom 

two push buttons activate the retract function.
With the pump motor ON:
•  Press and hold both 

advance

 push buttons to 

advance the piston and slide the moving blade 

forward. See Figure 9.

•  Press and hold both 

retract

 push buttons to retract 

the piston and slide the moving blade backward. See 

Figure 10.

•  Release any push button at any time to stop movement 

of the piston and moving blade. Be advised that there 

may be a brief delay for the piston and blade to make 

a complete stop.

 

NOTICE

A safety switch prevents the cutter from 

operating unless the locking latch is latched and the 

threaded knob is fully installed. Refer to Section 7.2 for 

additional information.

8.4  Trapped Air Removal

Before placing a new cutter into operation, cycle the 

piston several times without load to remove any trapped 

air in the hydraulic circuit. The tool should also be placed 

below the pump so the air can escape to the pump 

reservoir.
Air is completely purged when the piston advances and 

retracts smoothly in both directions, from fully extended 

to fully retracted.
This procedure may also be performed after the cutter 

has been serviced.
Refer to the cutter controls information in Section 8.6 of 

this manual when performing the air removal procedure.

8.5  Positioning Material

Always be sure that the piston and moving blade are in 

the fully retracted “home” position before placing any 

material inside the cutting head. See Figure 7.

Figure 8, Positioning Material in the Cutting Head

Figure 7, Piston and Blade in Home Position 

(fully retracted)

Open the cutting head and place the material inside. 

Then, close the cutting head. Refer to Section 7.2 for 

additional information.
Position the material to be cut between the cutter 

blades, so that it is perpendicular to the piston axis, as 

shown in Figure 8. This will provide the best quality cut 

while placing the least amount of load on the cutter.

 

NOTICE

 Be certain that the properties of the material to 

be cut do not exceed the stated maximum limits 

applicable to your cutter model. Refer to Section 2.1 of 

this manual for additional information. Faliure to observe 

the instruction may result in poor cutting performance 

and/or damage to the cutter.
