MAINTENANCE
Maintenance of your FLETCHER 2200 PROFESSIONAL MAT CUTTER is mostly a matter of cleanliness.
1. Keep a dry, lint free cloth near the machine. Wipe the Shaft and Mat Clamp daily and frequently during use to
remove loose paper particles, dust, and other foreign matter. DO NOT USE OIL OR WAX. Cover the machine with a
dust cover when not in use.
2. Periodically check the squareness and accuracy of sizing cuts, Mat Guide squareness and dimensions of mat bor-
ders. If corrections are required, follow the procedures outlined in the ADJUSTMENTS section. The frequency of
inspection depends upon how many people are using the cutter and the care it is given. If set up properly and the
mounting and adjustment screws are not changed, it will produce excellent results indefinitely.
3. If the Cutting Head makes a rumbling noise it is caused by paper debris on the Mat Clamp or Ball Bearings.
First, wipe the top of the Mat Clamp thoroughly. Slightly loosen the set screw (L) shown on the previous page in
Figure 20. Tack down one end of a 6" strip of tape on the top of the Mat Clamp in the path of the Roller Bearing and
fold the tape back away from the Cutting Head so the glue side of the tape is facing up. Slowly slide the Cutting
Head over the tape. Debris will be transferred to the tape which can be discarded. Repeat this procedure for the other
Ball Bearing track. Be sure to re-adjust the set screw (L) as described on the prior page.
4. Both the bevel and straight pivot heads on the Cutting Head should rotate freely, but without excessive play. The
Pivot Screw, accessible after removing the Magazines, must be tight. Shim Washers are available in four different
thicknesses from .002" to .006" (.051mm to .152mm). Choose a combination of shims and insert the Pivot Screw
through them before tightening. These washers are identified as Ref. number 5 in the Cutting Head Parts List.
5. If it is ever necessary to remove the Cutting Head, follow this procedure:
a.
Remove both blade Magazines. Remove the hex head bolt (A) from the lower end of the Shaft. Be sure to keep
the spring washer with the bolt. See Figure 21.
b.
Remove the two button head hex screws (B) from the lower Hinge Bracket using the hex wrench provided.
c.
Slip the Shaft Bracket off the Shaft. Lift the Clamp Handle just enough to allow the Shaft Bracket to be
removed.
d.
Slide the Cutting Head off the shaft. Do not lift the Clamp Handle any higher than clearance requires. Hold your
hand beneath the Cutting Head to prevent the Ball Bearing (C) from falling to the floor. Re-assemble the
Cutting Head in the reverse order.
