removing/reinstalling Challenge 26.5” lever cutter blade

I need help! I recently purchased a Challenge 26.5” manual lever cutter, but the blade is not making a cleaning cut or a “click” sound when the paper is cut. I know I need to replace the cutting stick, and either remove the blade to resharpen or replace the blade. Any one can tell me how to properly remove the blade and properly reinstall it afterward?

Thanks!!!

These three videos will give you a general idea of how to change the blade and to replace/adjust the cutting stick.

It’s qiute possible you may only need to remove cutting stick and give it a quarter turn for a fresh side.Then adjustment of the bolts to bring blade lower may do the trick.

Good Luck … and … BE CAREFUL.
