Adjusting the front pressure plate
• Position the pressure plate (86)
correctly, insert clamping lever
(89) and fasten the pressure
plate slightly (tightening the
clamping lever just a bit).
• Height-adjust the pressure plate
via screws (87).
The upper edges of the two
pressure plates (86) and (80)
must be at the same height and
parallel to each other.
The clearance angle of the front
pressure plate (86) is adjusted with
a setscrew (88), which is accessi-
ble through an opening on the un-
derside of the knife holder (see
drawing).
• Insert a blade (77) and tighten
the clamping mechanism (89)
lightly.
The setscrews (87) on the underside of the knife holder (accessible
through openings in the underside of the knife holder) enable you to
height-adjust the front pressure plate. A size- 2 Allen key is needed to do
the adjustment.
• With screw (88) adjust pressure plate (86) so that only the upper edge
of the pressure plate actually exerts pressure on the blade. A gap must
remain visible (Fig. 31/). A small screwdriver (ca. 3.0 x 70) is neces-
sary for adjustment.
• When adjusting, ensure that a gap of approx. 0.4-0.8 mm remains be-
tween the two pressure plates with the clamping mechanism not yet
tightened (
Fig. 31/).
