Also this machine can be used to cut any odd shape and sizes and also of various materials up to 3mm thickness. For Gasket Thickness of 1.0mm below, it is advisable to insert Cardboard backing material in order to avoid Gasket folding at point of cutting.

OPERATION

• STEPS FOR CUTTING CIRCULAR GASKETS

Step-1             Cut out approximate raw size of gasket from roll

Step-2             Punch / drill a Hole of diameter 7/16 inches (11mm) in center of the cut gasket

Step-3             Lift the cutter of the machine by using its lever. Unscrew and take out know on                         pivot pin and mount punched / drilled gasket on pivot pin to reset on support                         plate and then tighten knob from top.

Step-4             Set Radius of required gasket size (half of diameter) after loosening lock screw                         and sliding movable scale in its slot, tighten the lock screw when the desired                         radius is adjusted.

Step-5             Lower the cutter by operating lever so that the cutter bites in the gasket.

Step-6             Hold the handle and start rotating it so that gasket starts rotating and the cutter                         will cut the circular gasket it its desired diameter. Continue to rotate the handle                         till the gasket is cut to its thickness.

Step-7             Lift the cutter by operating lever. Unscrew and take out knob and then remove                        desired circular gasket from pivot pin. Replace the knob on to the pivot pin.

• STEPS TO CUR IRREGULAR SHAPED GASKET

Step-1             Cut out approximate raw size of gasket from roll.

Step-2             Mark the required irregular shape on gasket.

Step-3             Lift the cutter of the machine by using the lever.

Step-4             Loosen lock screw and slide moveable scale so that pivot arm does not obstruct                         the cutting action or if gasket to be cut is rather big enough, let the pivot pin                         support the gasket from bottom

Step-5             Bring the marked line on the gasket below cutting edge of the cutter.

Step-6             Lower the cutter by operating lever so that the cutter blade bites in the gasket                         on marked line.

Step-7             Hold the handle and start rotating it so that the gasket moves. Hold the gasket                         and feed it along the markings below the cutter. The cutter will cut the along                         gasket along the marking, as long as handle is rotated.

Step-8             Stop rotating the handle and after desires shape of gasket is fully out.
