6.5.1 Lower Blade Adjustment
Upper and lower shear blades have been factory
aligned and should not require immediate
adjustment. Should re-alignment be needed in the
future, proceed as follows:
1. Place a heavy sheet of paper in the cutting
position, along entire length of bed, and make
a cut.
2. If the shear does not cut the paper, loosen
screw (L, Figure 8) at each end of table, with
8mm hex key.
3. Rotate adjustment screws (M, Figure 9) to shift
table and change the gap between blades. Do
not allow the blades to overlap.
Figure 9
4. If the shear cuts the paper on the ends, but not
the center, slightly turn screw (N, Figure 10)
clockwise until paper is cut the entire length.
5. If the shear cuts the paper in the center, but
not the ends, turn screw (N) counterclockwise
until paper is cut the entire length.

6.5.2 Blade Rotation/Replacement
Exercise caution when
working with or near the blades. Use work
gloves when handling them.
The shearing blades are reversible and
interchangeable; when the edges dull, rotate them
to the new edge, as follows:
1. Remove hold-down by loosening screws (O,
Figure 11), using 6mm hex key.
2. Raise upper blade to highest position.
3. Remove seven screws (P, Figure 11) and
carefully remove blade.
4. Rotate or replace blade and re-install screws
(P).
5. Reinstall hold-down. When blade is in highest
position, the gap between the hold-down and
the table should be within 1/4”. Adjust to this
position by turning the two screws (O, Figure
11) as needed. When the blade starts its
downward travel, the hold-down should
immediately hold workpiece in place.
