Blade Adjustment - Tamerica TPI-4900E Manual De Usuario

Blade Adjustment

The TPI-4900E is designed to cut paper and the lifespan of the blade will typically last up to 3,000
cuts. This will vary especially if the cutter is used to cut thick stacks of paper or pasteboard all
the time which will dull out the blade quickly. Sharpening the blade professionally at a local ma-
chine shop is acceptable but it is recommended to have an original replacement blade installed on
the cutter should it start developing cutting accuracy and quality issues.
1. The cutter comes calibrated from factory but some settings may shift or change by the time
the cutter arrives its destination. To check if the blade is still in its optimum position, try to
cut one sheet of paper. If the cutter struggles to cut it completely, adjust the blade depth
which ranges from 2-3mm. If it still is not able to cut the sheet, use a Phillips screwdriver to
remove the screws that hold the upper cover in order to access the cutting blade.
2. Loosen the seven M6 fasten screws and adjust the screws on the blade carrier until the blade
cuts into the cutting stick by about 0.3 — 0.5mm.
NOTE: If after using the cutter for a while you notice cutting inconsistencies even after making
the above adjustments, it may be time to replace either the blade or cutting stick.
