When in the down position, it automatically applies pressure to the material to facilitate smooth, accurate cutting.

When necessary, the hold-down may be flipped up out of the way to permit easy access to the blades. Movable Handle The shear handle may be installed on the left or right of the shear enabling right handed and left handed operators to use the same shear. Precision Drop-Off Bar The Precision Drop-Off Bar is full width and is an invaluable aid for making accurate, repetitive cuts. It is mounted to the top blade carrier and moves up and down with the top blade like the rear gauge on many larger guillotine shears. It is above the material and doesn't interfere with the material as it falls away from the shear after it is cut.

It slides on two alignment rods and is locked in position by turning a knob on each rod. Step Ruler The typical ruler is a stamped piece of thin metal. The ruler from Accucutter® is machined from a thick, solid piece of steel. There are six separate steps involved in its manufacture with the last being a precision grinding of the front edge to insure that the ruler is straight and true. Because of its thickness, it is very stable, and the edge will not lift or distort allowing material to slide underneath the ruler.

Lastly, the ruler is stepped to place the measuring edge close to the work surface for easier reading. The ruler is graduated in 1/16th's of an inch. Blade Adjustment The standard 3001 uses the same blade system pioneered by Accucutter® on its 2001 Bench Shear. The blades are mounted with tapped bolts rather than the old fashion nut and bolt system, and the bottom blade is adjusted with set screws instead of eccentrics. A much safer, quicker and simpler method of installing and adjusting the blades.
