4-1 Installing a Blade

4 Basic Operation

Do not touch the tip of the blade

with your fingers.

Doing so may result in injury, and the

cutting performance of the blade will be

impaired.

Be sure to support the tool mounting screw from below when installing the blade holder.

Cutting quality may become poor if installed without supporting the screw in this way.

NOTICE

Depending on the material in use, it may be necessary to adjust the tip of the blade. For more information, see "4-5 Cutting Test."

Insert a blade into the blade holder until it snaps into

place with an audible click.

(1) Loosen the tool securing screw on the cutting

carriage.

(2) Support the tool-securing screw from below and

install the blade holder. Insert the blade holder

until the collar is flush with the carriage.

(3) Tighten the tool securing screw until the blade

holder is secured in place.
