Changing Knives
When the cutting is no longer satisfactory, e.g. unclean cut surfaces with grooves, the knives
must be changed or sharpened.
Precautions recommended:
Place a block of wood 2 mm below the knives so they cannot drop.
TESA type tape can be used to cover the cutting edge of the knives to safeguard both the
blades and your fingers during removal and refitting.
1. Bolts (6), (7) + (8) are loosened with spanner (17mm.).
2. Remove bolts (6) + (8).
3. Remove bolt (7) from knife (5L) while pressing the knife against the knife block (4) with
you hand so that the knife does not fall down.
4. Remove the knife.
TAKE CARE OF YOUR FINGERS.
5. The same procedure is adopted with the opposite knife (5R).
6. Clean the surfaces of the knife block (4) and the new knives very carefully as even the
smallest impurity between knife and knife block (4) will cause the knives to impinge too
hard against the bottom knives (9).
7. Both new knives (5L) + (5R) are fitted on the knife block (4) with the bolts (6) + (8). Do
not tighten the bolts.
8. The knives are pressed together at the front point. The knives must meet precisely at the
front point and neither front edge must be further ahead than the other.
9. Check if the cutting edges of the knives are exactly the same height. If not, the knives
can be adjusted up or down separately until the correct position is reached.
10.Tighten the bolts (6) (in both knives).
11.Insert the bolts (7) and tighten them.
12.Tighten bolts (8).
13. Press the foot pedal down very slowly and gently, to check that the new knives do not
bind against the bottom knives.
14. Make a trial cut.
15. If in the slightest doubt about this repair,
then call a qualified engineer.
