To ensure you always get a great cut quality, it’s important to regularly swap the blades on your Morso for a freshly sharpened set. Watch our video to learn how to do it correctly.
We recommend applying a dry lubricating spray to your Morso’s pedal and blade mechanisms every four weeks. Watch our video to see all the points to target.

Lower the pedal and remove the guard. The blades are sharp so always lock the pedal in place when possible.
Remove any attached rebate supports.
With a long handle hex key, loosen the bolts on the bottom knives on either side.
Raise the foot pedal as high as it will go to raise the blades.
With a Morso spanner loosen the bolts holding the main blades in place.
Remove the top and bottom bolts first. Rotate and hold the blade. Carefully undo the centre bolt and remove.
Clean the back plate and bottom knives with a dry dust-free cloth.
To fit the new Morso blades attach the blade against the back plate and screw in the middle bolt.
Carefully rotate the blade and screw in the top and bottom bolts.
Do this on both sides of the Morso but don't make them too tight.
Move to the front of the machine. Check the alignment of the two blades. Make adjustments with a screwdriver.
When blades are aligned fully tighten each bolt to hold them in place.
Move the bottom knives back into place and tighten the hex bolts.
Move the blades up and down, make adjustments if there's rubbing or scraping.
Lock the foot pedal down again before reattaching the rebate supports and guard.
