Description
Dahle Professional Rotary Trimmers
Generation 3 Series
With a sturdy design and a variety of cutting lengths, these trimmers are ideal for heavier duty applications like trimming multiple sheets of paper and cardstock. Their stability and reliability are ideal for busy offices, art departments, and professional photographers.
Dahle Rotary Trimmers are highly precise paper cutters that offer control and accuracy for general trimming and creative projects. They feature a self-sharpening system that maintains a perfectly honed blade, a metal base with screened guides that will never warp or crack, and the blade is encased in a plastic housing for safety. These German-engineered trimmers guarantee years of trouble-free use for ultra-precise trimming of paper, photos, and cardstock.
Precision, Self-Sharpening Blade
This trimmer features a self-sharpening cutting system. No need to worry about replacing dull or worn blades, this system sharpens as you cut to maintain a perfectly honed edge. The blade's precision graduated edge will remove even the tiniest sliver of paper and produce a clean, burr-free cut.
Dual-Barrel Guide Bar
The extruded aluminum guide bar provides superior strength and durability when cutting thicker materials. The dual-barrel design provides a smooth, stable track for the cutting head to power through dense material.
Automatic Clamp
Holding your work securely by hand is no longer necessary. The trimmer’s integrated, automatic clamping system provides even pressure that prevents your work from shifting.
Durable Metal Base
The base features carefully screened rulers and guides to help align your cuts, plus standard-sized guides for trimming photos and documents. For a solid foundation, it has a sturdy metal base that will never warp or crack.

Frequent Asked Questions
Q
On the 550 hold to unlatch bar with red button? I push but won’t release.
Asked by I Huband
A
That red button is actually used to move the magnet so you can slide the backstop; it does not unlatch. There is no blade release on this model; it just slides back and forth along the bar. I hope this helps!
