WAY OF USING

While cutting maximum amounts of sheets of paper at a time, it is also recommended to 

cut smaller amounts of paper, thus allowing self-sharpening of blade through contact of  

the blade with the counterblade. There is a rule in all guillotines – the bigger amount of 

sheets cut at a time – the smaller quality of cutting.

OPERATION

1.   Place the guillotine on a stable, horizontal surface.

2.   Carefully loosen the blade from the security lock and lift the blade up to  

the maximum position.  

 

NOTE!

 - automatic sheet-pressing system causes tension in horizontal posi-

tion and may cause recoil of the blade when loosening the blade from the security 

lock.

3.   Put the paper down on the guillotine, along the vertical slide.

4.   Press the paper with your left hand and lower the blade with your right hand.

5.   Secure the blade into security block, when the guillotine is not used.

MAINTENANCE

You may clean the guillotine with a dry rag. Never use solvents or water. From time to time 

you may oil the blade with silicone fluid or liquid vaseline, using the rag. It will guarantee 

the smooth work of knives and will protect the steel from rust.

MALFUNTION

If any faults should appear, please pass the machine along with the warranty card to the 

seller or closest authorised dealer. The machine might be passed further, thus the user 

should maintain the original and complete packaging. In cases when the machine is 

passed for repair in a not original or incomplete package, the risks of further damages that 

might arise in transportation are on the user's side. Thus, in such a case, it is in the user's 

best interest to make the best possible replacement packaging.
