How to Insert Score Slitters into a Pneumatic Lever

Alcon Post #4


How-To Video for Pneumatic Levers


Pneumatic Lever


The only tools required for inserting a score slitter into a pneumatic holder are your hands and a block of wood or rubber to form a firm non-damaging surface.


Here are the instructions for inserting a score slitter into a pneumatic lever:

  1. Insert the bearing into the center hole of the score slitter. This should be done using only thumb pressure. If more force is required, the center hole may be too small or you have the wrong bearing.
    1. Pneumatic holders generally use one of two different size bearings: the smaller bearing is 19 mm (.748") in diameter, and the larger one is 22 mm (.866") in diameter
    2. *If your operation produces a fair amount of dust, you should choose a sealed bearing.
  2. Insert the axle into the center hole of the bearing.
  3. Insert the slitter, bearing, and axle assembly into the holder with the axle aligned with the slot of the forks and then press the knife against the block of wood or rubber to seat the axle into the forks.
The knife should rotate free when properly assembled.
