Carpet knife
If the carpet knife (18) is blunt, the
blade can be replaced or the blunt/
damaged segment of the blade can
be broken.
The predetermined breaking points
can be recognised by the indenta-
tions, which are evenly spaced across
the blade.
Notes
•
CAUTION! Risk of injury! When
a blade breaks off, parts may fly
through the air. Wear eye protec-
tion.
•
CAUTION! Risk of injury! The
blades of a carpet knife are very
sharp. Wear safety gloves.
•
CAUTION! Risk of injury! Worn
blades are still a major source of
danger. Dispose of the blade im-
mediately.
Required tools
• Pliers (not included)
Break blade
1. Only push the blade out of the
housing up to the predetermined
breaking point, otherwise more
than one segment may break off.
2. Grasp the blade with pliers near
the predetermined breaking point.
3. Break the blade in such a way that
the pliers are rotated around their
own axis and the breaking point is
pulled apart. This causes the bar
to break off sharply.
Replace blade
1. Push the slider (18.1) on the carpet
knife (18) forwards as far as it will
go.
2. Remove and dispose of the blunt
blade properly.
3. Push the slider (18.1) on the car-
pet knife (18) backwards as far as
it will go to use a new blade.
Filling the magazine
1. Press the release (18.2) on the
carpet knife (18) to pull out the
magazine with the replacement
blades to the rear.
2. Insert the new blade into the
magazine. An opening is punched
in the rear end of the blade into
which the slider is hooked.
3. Push both back into the guide until
the magazine with the replacement
blades clicks into place.
