Removing a Broken Thumbscrew from the Cutting Head
This procedure will assist in safely removing a thumbscrew tip from the threaded hole in
the cutting head. The thumbscrew may snap off due to a mat jam during cutting, or from
over-tightening.
1) Remove the blade magazine
from the slot in the cutting
head. Pry the magazine out of
the slot with a flat blade
screwdriver as shown.
2) Press in the Emergency Stop knob, or turn off power to the machine by shutting
down Windows normally. Unplug the main air hose from the pneumatics panel on
the rear of the machine.
3) Remove the 3 cutting head cover plate screws with a 1/8” Allen wrench.
