Of course it has both inch and centimeter measurements, and guides to common paper lengths.

Next, pull the back lever to clamp your pages in place. This is a very sturdy clamp.

Then pull the large lever down to make your cut—it takes a bit of work to pull it down, but for cutting 500 sheets at a time, it seems pretty easy.

Now, if the safety shield is open you cannot pull down the lever to make your cut. This is a very important safety feature.

There is a cutting mat at the bottom of the blade, when the groove in this gets too deep, rotate and flip the bar as needed for cleaner cuts—note that you do this 8 times per bar.

Lastly, you can choose to include the optional stand to store projects on and to hold your cutter.

Cutting multiple sheets of paper is easy work for a rolling trimmer, but when you need to cut an entire stack, there's no better tool than a Dahle professional stack cutter. These high volume cutters are German engineered for quality and performance. They're manually operated, but make easy cutting of up to 700 sheets of paper at a time, the precision ground blade effortlessly glides through paper and produces a clean fur free edge. For accuracy, the micro adjust guide can be set to your exact size. But if for some reason, the paper was not aligned correctly, don't worry.
