WARNING: Sharp Blade Hazard
Blades are sharp and can cause cuts and amputation.

Wash new blades with warm, soapy water and rinse thoroughly to remove the thin protective oil film. Keep the sharp edge away from you when handling blades.
- Remove the pusher head assembly:
- Tabletop models: Slide the pusher head off the rod guides.
- Wall mount models: Remove the locking pin (J). Lift the handle and slide the pusher head off the guide rods. Place the pin back into the hole on the handle assembly to prevent loss.
