Welcome to MyBinding How To videos. This video shows easy die changing for the Diamond 5 corner rounder. First things first, power down and unplug the machine before you make any adjustments. Initially, you'll need to remove the faceplate. You do this by unscrewing the four screws on either side of the faceplate. Store the screws in a safe place so you don't lose them and remove the plate. Next, you'll need to loosen the four screws that lock the die into place. You won't need to remove the screws completely, just loosen them enough for the die to fall. Gently remove it from the machine and select your new or alternate die. Each die set comes with two parts, one of them being a small foot. First you'll need to remove the old foot from the machine. You do this by loosening the two screws with an Allen wrench, usually provided with your die. Remove the old foot and replace it with the new one that matches with your die. Screw down, but only loosely first. Gently place the new die into the shaft. Do so slowly and carefully to not hurt yourself or the machine. Loosen that small square clamp if you need to. Otherwise, tighten it down so it's in place secure. Place the foot, clamp it down. Make sure the foot and the die do not not make contact. This is very important, because if the blade comes down on that foot, it will destroy it immediately. Finish up by replacing the faceplate and its four bolts and you're all set to go. That is easy die changing for the Diamond 5. For more demos, reviews, and how to's on this product and many more, check out MyBinding.com.
