Be careful of the sharp blades
2.
To remove the PUSHER ASSEMBLY for cleaning, remove the THUMB SCREWS and the SLIDE STOP and pull the
PUSHER off the end of the SLIDE BOARD.
3.
The SLIDE BOARD and the BLADE SHIELD can be removed by removing their mounting screws.
4.
To totally disassemble the PUSHER ASSEMBLY for cleaning, remove the acorn and hex nuts on top of the stack and
carefully remove the PUSHER PLATES and SPACERS. Remove the other screws to disassemble the other parts from the

To re-assemble, reverse the procedure for dis-assembly.
NOTICE: After re-assembly, the BLADES must be retensioned.

(Hot water will make the SLIDE BOARD expand and may make it hard to push the PUSHER ASSEMBLY until the
SLIDE BOARD returns to room temperature.)
Service Instructions
1.
When placing BLADES into the TENSION BLOCKS, place one TENSION BLOCK on the worktable with the long groove
turned up and the other TENSION BLOCK with the long groove turned down. Insert a blade (sharp side down) in the
end slot of each TENSION BLOCK and push a TENSION ROD into each TENSION BLOCK and push a TENSION ROD
into each TENSION BLOCK just far enough to secure the BLADE. Insert another blade in the next slot and push the
TENSION ROD to secure it. Repeat until all BLADES are in place.
2.
When placing BLADES into the BLADE HOLDER, be sure the sharp side of the BLADES is pointing toward the caution
warning on the BLADE HOLDER.
3.
The BLADE KIT can be installed only one way; the mounting screw holes in the TENSION BLOCKS nearest the end of
the BLOCK must be down toward the SLIDE BOARD. (If sharp edges of the BLADES point the wrong way, turn the
BLADE KIT end for end.)
4.
To secure the BLADE ASSEMBLY in the BLADE HOLDER install the (2) hex head screws through the BLADE HOLDER
and into the TENSION BAR at the end of the BLADE HOLDER nearest the warning. Tighten these 2 screws “ finger
tight” or a little tighter. Then install the (2) hex head screws loosely into the TENSION BAR at the other end of the
BLADE HOLDER. (Do not tighten the BLADES until after the BLADE HOLDER is mounted on the FRAME.)
5.
When mounting the BLADE HOLDER ASSEMBLY on the FRAME, be sure the sharp side of the BLADES is directed
toward the PUSHER ASSEMBLY.
To Tension Blades
