The most common causes of premature anvil or blade

wear are excessive tension between the anvil and Anvil and Blade Replacement
blades, excessive cutter speed, and excessive tension
between the idler wheel and anvil. See page 8 for the See Replace Anvil and Replace Blades procedures on
Adjust Anvil to Cutter Head Tension procedure. pages 11 and 12.

To reduce the cutter speed while keeping the same

glass output, perform the following procedure:

6. Tighten idler lockdown screw to lock idler in posi-

Adjust Blower Air

NOTE: Blower air adjustment only applies to cutters
shown in FIG. 1, page 4.
The cutter has blower air to help keep the anvil cool and
to keep the inside of the cover free of debris. The blower
air has been factory set to optimize performance of the
cutter, however it can be adjusted.

Use a 3/32 hex allen key to turn adjusting screw (635)

counter-clockwise to allow more air flow into the inside
of the cover on the cutter assembly. This will affect air
motor performance as less air will go to the air motor
resulting in slower cutter speeds.
