Rev. A Mechanisms and Operation 2-15
TM-T88 Series Technical Manual
When the stationary blade is not in the home position during normal use, the paper cutter motor
rotates in reverse to move the stationary blade to the home position. The cutter motor gear has a
knob that makes it possible to move the movable blade when the drive force of the motor is
unable to return the stationary blade to the home position.
A window is provided in the paper cutter cover in order to make it possible to check whether
the movable blade has returned to the home position.
Emergency cutter
The emergency cutter can be used to cut paper manually whenever the auto cutter mechanism
does not operate properly because of some problem. The emergency cutter is affixed to the
paper cutter cover by screws.
Cover Mechanism
A roll paper cover is fixed to the frame cover. The roll paper cover ensures the strength of the
cover section. The frame cover passes through the cover shaft, allowing the roll paper cover to
hinge on the main frame. A cover spring affixed to the main frame comes into contact with the
shaft on the frame cover, providing optimum load when the frame cover is opened and closed.
