2. Safety Information

WARNING: Razor blades are extremely sharp. Handle with extreme care to prevent injury.

• Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment, such as cut-resistant gloves, when handling blades.
• Keep blades out of reach of children and pets.
• Dispose of used blades safely in a designated sharps container. Do not dispose of in regular household waste.
• Ensure the blade is securely seated in the tool before use.
• Do not apply excessive force, which could cause the blade to break or slip.

3. Setup and Installation

These blades are designed to fit most standard razor blade tools. Refer to your specific tool's instruction manual for precise blade installation steps.

1. Ensure the razor blade tool is clean and free of debris.
2. Carefully open the blade packaging, handling the blade by its non-sharp edges or the steel-capped end.
3. Insert the single-edged blade into the designated slot of your razor blade tool, ensuring it is properly aligned and seated.
4. Secure the blade according to your tool's locking mechanism. Verify the blade is firm and does not wobble before use.

4. Operating Instructions

Kole Imports MT008 Razor Blades are suitable for cutting various materials. Always ensure a stable cutting surface and maintain a firm grip on your tool.

• Cutting Cardboard: Place the cardboard on a protective surface. Apply steady, even pressure while guiding the blade along the desired cut line.
• Cutting Leather: For cleaner cuts, use a straight edge as a guide. Apply consistent pressure. Multiple passes may be required for thicker leather.
• Cutting Linoleum: Score the linoleum first with light pressure, then apply more pressure on subsequent passes to cut through.
• Cutting Rope: Place the rope on a firm surface. Press down firmly and cut through with a single, decisive motion if possible.
• Cutting Soft Metal: These blades can cut thin, soft metals. Use caution and ensure the metal is secured to prevent slipping.

Always cut away from your body and fingers. Replace blades when they become dull to ensure efficient and safe cutting.

5. Maintenance

These razor blades are designed for single-use or limited use depending on the material being cut. Proper maintenance extends their effective life and ensures safety.

• Cleaning: After use, carefully wipe any residue from the blade using a dry cloth. Avoid using water, which can cause rust.
• Storage: Store unused blades in their original packaging in a dry, cool place. Keep them away from moisture and corrosive materials.
• Replacement: Replace blades immediately if they show signs of dullness, chipping, or bending. A dull blade requires more force, increasing the risk of injury.

6. Troubleshooting

Most issues related to razor blades stem from improper handling or dullness.
