Instructions

To Install a Blade

WARNINGS:

 

ALWAYS disconnect the power cord plug from the facility power outlet 
or CastVac power outlet before installing a blade. Failure to comply may 
cause fire, electric shock, or injury.

 

Before each use, inspect the blade for wear. DO NOT use a dull blade. 
Using a dull blade may cause a burn injury.

CAUTIONS: 

 

To ensure safe and efficient cutting and avoid damaging the equipment, 
ALWAYS install the blade as indicated in these instructions.

 

The blade retention screw is captive and cannot be removed from the 
Cast Cutter. DO NOT attempt to remove the screw or loosen the screw 
beyond the point when it no longer turns.

1.  Use the blade tool supplied with the Cast Cutter to loosen the blade 

retention screw. Turn the screw counterclockwise until it no longer turns.

2.  Slide a blade over the screw and the top two blade guide posts.

3.  Pull the blade down behind the screw and over the bottom two blade 

guide posts. Make sure that all four posts are engaged with the blade.

4.  Use the blade tool to tighten the blade retention screw against the blade.

WARNING: 

Before operating the equipment, ALWAYS make sure the 

blade is securely installed and the blade retention screw is tight. An 
improperly tightened screw may come loose and cause the blade to 
fracture.

5.  Confirm that the blade is securely installed and the blade retention screw 

is tight against the blade.
