Hola, tenemos ya tres años con esta cortadora y por más que tratamos de ajustar esta parte, no lo hemos podido hacer porque nunca llega hasta abajo... hay alguna forma de que nos den soporte? tenemos la cortadora nueva y ya un poco de desesperación de que no nos funcione :-(
Hi, you can rotate the original one. Each side of the stick can be used twice by flipping the stick length-wise, then you can rotate to a fresh side of the stick for 8 usable areas total.
I noticed that my cutter wont cut easily anymore, something to do with the part that presses the papers together. I dont know if it has loosened up or i need to sharpen the blade.
I wish you would add a video about leveling the blade. Several people have asked. Apparently it is not the same as leveling the clamp, because I tried that.
Great video! Thank you! This is my second time adjusting the blade and I thought I remembered how to do it. So I turned the allen wrench bolt next to the two bolts you're supposed to turn. Now, the clamp will come down straight until I crank it down hard. Then one end starts rising again. Did I break it? Is there a way to fix that? Thank you!
Thank you for this! This lead me to a few of your other videos on how to adjust and to change things. The clamp part for me was higher at the top and at the bottom( closest to the turn handle), I tweaked that. Then flipped the red bar around. I thought I was going to have to buy a new cutter with all the issues I was having. So your videos helped me save my money. Though I didn't buy my cutter from you, on Amazon.ca, your video and help are greatly appreciated.
Hi , I need some urgent advice pleas. I have one of these machine but even though the blade is sharp it will not cut through paper. I notice that you can see a minute gap between the blade and the red bar when the blade is fully down would cause the blade not to cut properly ? I have spent hours trying to work out why a sharp blade wont cut through 15 pieces of paper. Cold it be a blade misalignment? I use this guillotine for my work and without it i'm stuck. any advice most appreciated please.
For some reason the square nut that holds the bolt on the clamp rig is slipping out when I'm trying to clamp a stack. That happens every time I use it. Is there a way to fix that?
I just bought a paper cutter that looks like yours but the pressing clamp like the one you demonstrating how to fix arrived broken. Where can I buy the clamp/handle???
How do you adjust the blade so its level? It's been cutting straight but now nothing is cutting if it's up against the top. It is sitting uneven like the clamp in this video.
Why are you just doing things without saying anything, and to make matters worst the camera angle in not in place so we can see exactly what you doing. Not helpful at all
My 858 is not cutting. I just sharpend the blade. I think it misalined. Do you have any other video's that explain it better. Or is it as simple as adding a washer. What thickness should the washer be? It their a Trouble shooting guide? OR any other support.
THIS IS A HUGE PROBLEM. I got this machine a week ago and the clamp became misaligned the first night I used it. I followed the instructions to fix the problem, but could not achieve 100% alignment. After following these steps, I achieve around 95% alignment. 3 days later, I used the machine again. After cutting 5 sheets of paper, I found that the clamp was (again) VERY misaligned. I’m so disappointed with this machine. It’s disappointing for 2 key reasons. 1) the frequency in which the clamp becomes misaligned and 2) the inability to fully correct the problem. The likelihood of experiencing one of these problems should deter someone from buying it. The likelihood of experiencing both problems is outrageous.
Gabriella, I am sorry to hear about the trouble you are having with our cutter. Doing this process once should fix it permanently, it sounds like there must be something else that is causing the issue you're having. If you could please contact us through our website we'd be happy to offer additional help, or send out a replacement cutter if needed. hardwarefactorystore.com/pages/support Sincerely, HFS
Kind of a useless video - what are you doing and why. You added a washer. How does that make the blade "straight" - mine isn't cutting square, which renders it pretty useless. Does anyone know how to do that?
Hello, That is what this video shows how to correct. You can use more or less washers (or different thickness washers) to change the angle of the blade against the frame. The cutter should arrive cutting squarely, but sometimes if the cutter is dropped or some other mishandling it can cause the blade to need adjustment. Sincerely, HFS
hi, not quite sure if all you do to fix is adding an extra washer?, also I bought this machine from amazon but I think I am missing some parts. I emailed you and called you but no reply yet. Please message me to answer some questions I have, thank you
