The Dahle 585 Large Format Premium Guillotine is a game - changer for large - scale projects. When standard trimmers just won't do, this commercial - grade cutter steps in. It's designed to handle large paper volumes while keeping your safety in focus. Key features include a patented beveled Solingen Steel blade that can be locked to prevent misuse, a metal fan guard that keeps your hand away from the blade, a lockable T - square guide for accurate cuts, metal scale bars on top and bottom, a durable laminated wood base with a 1' grid, and it's perfect for cutting thick materials like mat board and poster board.
Using the Dahle 585 Large Format Premium Guillotine is easy. First, place your material on the laminated wood base and use the lockable T - square guide to position it accurately. You can refer to the metal scale bars on the top and bottom to ensure proper alignment. Then, if you're not using the guillotine, lock the blade to prevent unauthorized use. When cutting, keep your hand behind the metal fan guard for safety. As for maintenance, keep the blade clean and dry. If you notice the cuts aren't as sharp as before, you may need to have the blade sharpened by a professional. Always store the guillotine in a dry place to avoid rusting and damage to the wood base.
