Use some pliers to avoid an injury. There is a small mark near blade pocket which shows you where the tip of the blade should be. Additionally you can use super glue to fix it in position.</li><li>Put both screws into the holes.</li><li>Put ball pen springs into the holes.</li><li>Place the upper part on the main body and press it fully.</li><li>Tighten the screws. Screw head should be about 1,5 mm inside head holes. If you will tight them too much it will destroy plate at the upper part.</li><li>Release upper part and check if blade is not visible inside the filament hole. If yes loose the screws little bit.</li><li>I recommend to put some lubricant inside to keep the mechanism running smoothly.</li></ol><h3>Acessories</h3><p><a href="https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/67639-filament-cutter-box">Here</a> you can find nice box from Wapameepto.</p><p> </p>
