Using the Guillotine
c
! Risk of cuts through sharp-edged guillotine blade. The guillotine blade is very
aution
sharp! Never reach in towards or take hold of the guillotine blade.
1
Release the locking mechanism (8) holding the guillotine arm.
2
Move the guillotine arm upwards.
3
Place the material to be cut under the pressing rail and press the rail downwards.
4
Then use your other hand to move the guillotine arm down and produce the cut.
The guillotine is equipped with a special screw to secure it from dropping uninten-
tionally or suddenly. This means the blade always remains at the position in which
it is released. The function of the screw between the blade and base of the
guillotine can deteriorate. Check it regularly. Tighten the screw using an appropri-
ate tool at regular intervals so that the guillotine blade does not drop of its own
accord
