ROTATING / REPLACING THE CUTTING STICK
The cutting stick is the surface the blade contacts during the cutting process. It can be rotated and used on each side,
4 times altogether.
If the last piece of paper in the stack is not cut through cleanly, and the blade depth has been adjusted properly, the cut-
ting stick should be rotated or replaced.
The cutting stick sits in a channel in the base of the cutter, just below the blade carrier. To remove it, first turn off the
power. Then insert the 5mm screwdriver into the cutting stick access slot (see photo below left) and lift up. Grasp the
cutting stick and remove (see photo below right). Rotate the cutting stick to a new side and re-install.
NOTE: When the cutting stick is rotated or replaced, the blade height must be readjusted. See the next page for blade
height adjustment instructions.
