The Dahle Vantage® 18e is an excellent guillotine trimmer with an 18-inch cut length. Its machine-ground blade is super sharp, allowing you to remove the tiniest paper slivers easily. It can cut up to 15 sheets of paper at once. The sturdy metal base comes with alignment guides for effortless trimming. Key features include a blade that ensures sharp edges and consistent results, an automatic clamp for secure workholding and even cutting, a tension spring that lifts the blade automatically to prevent it from falling, and screened guides for easy alignment.

Using this Dahle 18E Vantage guillotine trimmer is simple. First, place the paper you want to cut on the sturdy metal base and align it with the screened guides. Then, use the automatic clamp to hold the paper firmly in place. Once the paper is secure, you can make your cut. Just be careful when operating the blade to avoid any accidents. For maintenance, keep the blade clean and dry. After using it, make sure the tension spring is in good condition and the blade is lifted properly. If you notice any dullness in the blade over time, you may need to replace it for optimal cutting performance.
