1.7.2 Cutters with tangential head
1.7.2.1 Tangential knife installation
A knife is pre-installed in your cutter. For safety reasons, the knife depth has been set to zero.
Simply turn out the knife (see fig FIG 1-29) to start cutting. Below is the complete description
of how to remove or install a knife.
NOTE:
To benefit fully from the advantages of the tangential knife, the amount the
knife extends is very important. The knife pressure may not control the knife depth.
The two rollers of the nosepiece should always touch the media, thus controlling
the knife depth.
Removing the tangential knife
1. Turn the knife holder counterclockwise. The holder will rise up, eventually making it
possible to lift the knife holder out of the tangential head. The nosepiece is situated
underneath. Remove this part if another tool is used in the cutter.

2. The knife can be removed from the knife holder by using something like a flat screwdriver
to pry in the groove between the knife and the knife holder.
