Congratulations on your purchase of the Great Planes SLOT MACHINE, the first
truly easy way to cut hinge slots in your model airplanes.
The Slot Machine you have purchased is equipped with blades, each having a
thickness of .008" [0.2mm], which cut slots that are ideal for today’s CA hinges. If
you need to cut thicker slots for pinned hinges or tailgear brackets, etc., you may
want to purchase the .012" [0.3mm] blades, which have larger teeth and more
“set” in the teeth, which produce an ideal slot for a .040" [1mm] hinge. You will find
the instructions for blade replacement in this pamphlet.
Please read all the instructions and safety precautions before cutting
your first slot, and be sure to practice on balsa scraps to learn good
technique before cutting slots in your model airplane.
