DANGER: Sharp Blades!
Most injuries caused by knife blades occur when the cutter has been
turned off. Handle blades with care at all times.
• Always wear cut-resistant gloves when the cutting chamber is open and
when handling blades.
• Always lock out power to the cutter before opening the cutting chamber.
• Always wait until the cutter head has stopped completely before opening
the knife guard.
Combination puller/cutters are equipped with several safety devices to
ensure safe operation. Never remove or disable these devices to sustain
production. Operating without these devices can cause severe injury.
• When the knife guard is opened, the knife guard switch stops the cutter.
• Two proximity-type safety switches prevent operation unless the cutter
bushings are in place.
• The Cutter Stop button activates a circuit that stops the knife.
