Cleaning the Blade Holder Cap

When a blade holder has been used for a long time, the bearing that supports the blade deteriorates, making it more difficult for the blade to turn. If you continue to use the blade holder like this, the machine will not cut cleanly because the tip of the blade will not turn smoothly.

If any of the following conditions appears, clean the blade holder cap.

  • Corners and curves are not clean
  • Cut lines are perforated
CAUTION

Never touch the tip of the knife.

Doing so may result in injury. The cutting performance of the blade will also be impaired.

Loosen the cap to remove it, and remove any buildup of material or dust inside the cap.
