scratching a table top. Set the Fletcher 2200 on a flat table with the Clamp Handle to the left.
CAUTION:
USE EXTREME CARE
HANDLING BLADES.
THEY ARE VERY SHARP
The bevel cutting side of the Cutting Head accepts any of three different Fletcher Mat Blades. The 05-012 is .012"
(.3mm) thick and is used for cutting regular mats. The 05-015 is .015" (.4mm) thick and is used for denser or thicker
mats. The 05-016 is a single edge blade, beveled on one side only. It is used for very dense or thick mats and must be
installed with the beveled edge away from the head.
The straight sizing blade on the right is the Utility Blade, 05-004, and is capable of cutting material up to a nominal
1/2" (12mm) thick. All blades except the 05-016 single edge blade can be reversed in their magazine to double the life of
the blade, however, they must be inserted carefully
to avoid damage.
1. Insert a Blade (C) in the bevel cutting Magazine
(A) as shown in Figure 1. The Blade Extension
Screw (B) should be adjusted so the Blade (C)
penetrates about 1/3rd the thickness of a slip
sheet under the mat being cut. The blade should
always rest against the Blade Extension Screw
(B), and the Magazine (A) must be fully inserted
in the Cutting Head (D). Tighten its Locking
Knob (E) firmly. See Figure 3.
2. Straight cutting (sizing) is done on the right side
of the Cutting Head (D). The Magazine (F) and
Utility Blade (G), (05-004), are shown in Figure 2.
There are 4 possible depth positions for this blade,
but only two are used as seen in Figures 2 and 2a.
Figure 2a is the position for nominal 1/2" (12mm)
material, while Figure 2 is for 2, 4, 6, and 8 ply mat
board. The blade is held in place by a magnet. Insert
the Magazine (F) to a stop in the Cutting Head (D)
and tighten its Locking Knob (K). See Figure 4.
3. The Sight Gage (L) shown in Figure 3 is used to control the start of cut and end of cut when using pencil lines drawn
