BARONESS LM2700 BLADE/CUT ADJUSTMENT Before attempting to adjust the blades in order to put the machine ‘on cut’ please make sure that: The rear cutting cylinder pivot pins must be free rotating and that this bolt/nut is not over-tightened or seized due to corrosion.

Whilst other manufacturers run their blades with hard contact, they are made from a softer material which is not as durable as the Baroness. If the Baroness blades are adjusted correctly then they will last up to 5 times longer between regrinding than other makes of blades.

If the paper is not cut you will need to lower the cutting cylinder in order to increase blade contact. To do this, rotate the cylinder adjustment nut anti-clockwise as shown. There are two cylinder adjustment nuts, one either side of each unit. Initially make sure you adjust both of them by the same amount at the same time in order to keep the cylinder parallel to the bottom blade.

Once the blade is cutting paper on both sides you need to check that you do not have excessive blade contact. To do this you need to use another strip of paper but this time hold it flat along the surface of the bottom blade as shown.
