Changing the Blade in the Blade Cartridge

  • Loosen the Cartridge Release knob.

  • Pull out the Blade Cartridge.

  • Remove the Cover from the Blade Cartridge.

  • Replace the blade, making sure that the blade aligns to the first notch.

  • Replace the cover to the Blade Cartridge, allowing the magnet to snap onto the Blade.

  • Insert the Blade Cartridge keeping the protruding Blade Depth Adjustment Thumbwheel on the right side.

  • Tighten the Cartridge Release knob to lock it in place.

Adjusting the Acrylic/Blade/Glass Depth

  • Loosen the Cartridge Release knob.

  • Loosen the 1/16” set screw on the Blade Depth Adjustment Thumbwheel.

  • Turn the Blade Depth Adjustment Thumbwheel to adjust the cartridge depth.

  • The Blade Depth Adjustment Thumbwheel controls the depth of the acrylic/blade/glass cutter by impeding how far the cartridge can be inserted into the head.

  • Note that the (Optional) Composite Cartridge has no depth adjustment. See the desired tool for optimum depth:

  • Push the cartridge into the cutting head to re-measure how far the cartridge tool is located in reference to the material being cut.

  • Once the desired blade depth is set, tighten but don’t over-tighten the 1/16” set screw on the blade depth thumb wheel to lock it into place.

  • Press the cartridge into the head and tighten the Cartridge Release knob.

Setting Blade Depth

  • The Blade Cartridge depth should extend the blade past the vertical board rail, and should extend past the thickness being cut.
