CHECK AND ADJUST THE CLAMPING
Check the grip of the cutter bar using an A4/foolscap piece of paper. Starting at one end,
lift the cutter bar and place the paper under it, when lowered, the weight of the cutter bar
should grip the paper. Try to pull the paper free, if it is not clamped sufficiently note its
position and work your way down the cutter repeating the test with the paper and noting
where it is not clamped sufficiently.

TIP: Each full swing of the wrench adjusts the Base by the same amount,
so by adjusting the Jacking Screws in full swings, counting them will help to keep
the Base level.
Adjust the clamping by turning the Jacking Screws in the Base Fixing Brackets that are
adjacent to the areas that are not clamping the paper. Turn the Jacking Screws clock-
wise (as you look down on them) using the wrench supplied. Turn both the front and back
Jacking Screw by the same amount (to keep the Bracket level) until the paper is gripped.
You may find that two or three adjacent Brackets need adjusting if you have a wide area
that does not clamp.
