8.2 Changing the knife
Replace the knives in time. Blunt knives lead to poorer
cutting performance.
- Poor knife quality reduces the service life of the
knives.
- There is a danger that after a knife change the cut-
ting gap is incorrectly set and the machine is dam-
aged.
- Use protective gloves when changing the knives.
- After each knife change, make sure that the cutting
gap is within the permissible setting range of 0.25
mm.
- If necessary, readjust the cutting gap.
Replacing the upper knives:
Step 1: Move the knife bar to the upper end position and
switch off the machine by actuating the main
switch. Now secure the main switch against be-
ing accidentally switched on again.
Step 2: For removing the protective cover 1, you must
first unscrew the three screws 2 (Fig.15).
Step 3: Dismount the protective cover now. Lift the pro-
tective cover off the cutter bar and store it in a
safe place.

Step 4: For disassembling the downholder device 3, un-

Step 5: Remove the respective downholder and place it
at a sufficient distance to be able to disassem-
ble the upper knife (Fig.17) without any problem.
Use protective gloves!
CAUTION!
Use only the recommended original spare blades.
There is a risk that poorer material properties will
lead to knife breakage and cause injury and dam-
age to the machine.
