Appendix C:
How to install or Remove
Score Blades on a Baum 714
** UNPLUG POWER SUPPLY BEFORE WORKING ON ANY FOLDER **
The score blades are sharp. Extra care should be exercised to protect you from a cut
by the score blades.
BEFORE BEGINNING: On Air Feed and 714 AUTOFOLD units, disconnect the air and
vacuum hose, and on the AUTOFOLD, disconnect the electrical connection to the feed
table.
1. Lift up on the rear of the feed table and lift toward you to remove the feed table.
2. Under the feed table and just prior to the stacker is the slitter shaft assembly. On the left side of
the slitter shaft assembly is a screw or plunger that tightens against the frame to remove endplay
(movement from side to side). Loosen screw or pull plunger.
3. Carefully lift both ends up even and then towards you and lay the slitter shaft assembly on a
worktable with the rubber pullout tires toward the worktable top.
4. Loosen the socket head bolt from the end of the tie bar that fastens the left slitter shaft boxing
to the slitter shaft assembly. Remove the slitter shaft boxing from the slitter shafts.
5. Loosen the setscrew on the left pullout tire assembly and remove it from the top slitter shaft.
Leave the right pullout tie assembly in place.
6. To prepare the score blade assembly remove the two screws from the blade holder collar and
lay the score blade on the side of the blade holder collar and align the holes in the score blade
with the blade holder collar and replace the two screws. Do not tighten them now.
7. Slide the score blade and blade holder collar onto the top slitter shaft to the center of the top slitter
shaft and tighten the setscrew in the blade holder collar to lock it in position, and then tighten the
two screws to insure the score blade is tight against the blade holder collar.
8. Replace the left pullout tire assembly on the top slitter shaft and place it approximately three
inches from the score blade and tighten the setscrew to lock it in place. Keep all setscrews in line
so if you need to move them, you will not have to keep turning the slitter shaft.
9. Remove the left pullout tire assembly from the bottom slitter shaft.
10. Slide the score collar assembly on to the bottom slitter shaft until the score blade aligns with the
middle on the one-inch rubber in the score collar assembly. Tighten the setscrew to lock the
score collar in place.
