Remove the three screws which hold the cutting head.
When removing the second screw, be careful not to fall
the sleeve. Then the blades can be removed easily.
When removing the blades, hold the blades and the
sleeve so that they do not fall from the cutting head.
Installing shear blades
Fig.6
Install the sleeve and tighten the three screws after
inserting the center blade, side blade L & R into the
cutting head. In this process, the screw heads should be
protruding 2 - 3 mm from the cutting head surface.
If you will tighten the screws excessively, the cutting
head cannot be installed to the tool.
Installing cutting head
CAUTION:
•
Secure the cutting head firmly. Otherwise it can
rotate during operation and can cause serious
injury.

blade and the side blades R/L. And, also lubricate the
point of the center blade near the cutting head. To keep
good cutting performance, use lubricant from time to time
during operation.
