I. DESCRIPTION
1.1 GENERAL
Your new Maimin Sabre straight knife machine is delivered ready for operation. It is merely necessary to connect it to an electrical outlet of the correct voltage, oil it, and then begin cutting. The straight knife machine can be used for cutting
various types of materials from a few ply to the full capacity of the machine. However, for best results, it is recommended
that the minimum height ofthe lay be no lower than the bottom ofthe cutting blade at its highest position. The Presserfoot Leg (Key No. A403)acts as aprotective guard forthe operator sothat it should be down at alltimes. The Presserfoot should lie lightly on top of the lay when cutting in order to prevent the material from vibrating.
