CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR PURCHASE
OF THE SECUNORM 590.
You have chosen a high quality cutting tool by the Solingen company
MARTOR KG.
Your new safety knife is provided with automatic blade retraction to

bags, but also for example for cutting through tensioned safety
straps.
The metre-long handle ensures that you can do the cutting you
need to at a safe distance from the cutting material. With the robust,
dirt-resistant SECUNORM 590, you can also work reliably even when
the environmental eects are unfavourable.
As a leading provider of safe cutting solutions, we are committed to
the quality of the SECUNORM 590. However, if you do have any com-
plaints, do not hesitate to contact us. We would be happy to address

In order to release the safety
catch, twist the blade engaging
element in a clockwise direction
until you feel resistance ...
... and then pull it backwards
until the blade releases.
Then insert into the big bag from
the bottom or introduce an ap-
propriate cutting material ...
In order to use the SECUNORM 590, take it in both hands. Use one
hand to operate the blade engaging element in the centre of the
handle and use the other hand to hold the end of the handle tightly.

... and cut towards yourself. In order to ensure that the blade
safely retracts back into the
handle after the cutting, move
the blade engaging element
back to the initial position
(automatic blade retraction).
! You need not be underneath
the cutting material during the
cutting process or afterwards.

In order to access the screw on
the blade cover (at the front on
the cutting head, next to the
blade replacement symbol), first
remove the protective cap. It is
best to use the enclosed tool or
another suitable tool for this.
For the following steps, it is best to place the SECUNORM 590 on a
flat surface as shown above.
Once the protective cap has
been removed, unscrew the
screw on the blade cover.
! The screw is secured with a
retainer and can therefore not
be fully unscrewed.
Then swivel the cover in a
downwards direction and open
fully. The blade is now freely
accessible.

Now push the centre of the
blade holder (within the cross-
hatched area), ideally with the
index finger of the right hand,
and remove the blade with the
thumb and index finger of the
left hand simultaneously.
In order to insert a new blade,
use the right index finger to
push on the centre of the blade
holder again (a).
At the same time, use the left
thumb and index finger to push
the blade into the blade holder
until the hole formation on the
blade can no longer be seen (b).
The cutting edge must point in
the direction of a blue dirt con-
trol device, otherwise the blade
cannot be properly inserted.
Release the blade holder and al-
low the blade to click into place.
! For safety, shake the blade a
little as a test to ensure that it is
securely attached.
After successfully changing the
blade, please check whether the
release and retraction of the
blade is functioning properly.
Close the blade cover again (a),
screw the screw in tightly (b;
maximum torque: 0.5 Nm)and
add a protective cap.

Before cleaning or replacing the
blue dirt control device, first
remove the blade (see the
chapter on changing the blade,
2 to 5).
For the following steps, it is best to place the SECUNORM 590 on a
flat surface as shown above.
Now place the knife upright so
the opened blade cover is point-
ing upwards.
Then take hold of the grooves
on both sides of the dirt control
device and initially release in a
forwards direction by hand (a).
Then pull it out by shaking it
gently (b).

Then unfold the dirt control device
(a), clean it and put it back
together (b)– or use a new one.
! New dirt control devices must
also be put together in the middle
fi r s t .
When re-inserting the dirt control
device, hold the grooves again
tightly with the thumb and the in-
dex finger. First push the device
into the gap in the middle and
then push it completely inside. The
grooves and the hooks must point
outwards.
The dirt control device is correct-
ly inserted when it completely
fills the gap.
Now move the knife back to the
initial position and insert the
blade (see also the chapter on
changing the blade, 6 to 7).
After doing this, please check
whether the release and retrac-
tion of the blade is functioning
properly.
Finally close the blade cover
again (a),screw the screw in
tightly (b; maximum torque: 0.5

Choose between
hanging the knife
vertically ...
... or horizontally.
One wall mount bracket is su-
cient to hang the knife vertically;
to hang it
horizontally it is better
to use two wall mount brackets.
Depending on the local condi-
tions, you can attach the wall
mount bracket to a suitable wall
using the enclosed screws and
dowels or attach it to a rod using
a cable tie. The wall mount
bracket is the ideal place to hang
your SECUNORM 590 in a man-
ner which is safe for the work-
place.
ABB. 7
ATTACHMENT
WALL MOUNT BRACKET
MAINTENANCE AND ASSEMBLY
Each wall mount bracket is at-
tached using two screws. The
two outer holes in the base of
the wall mount bracket are pro-
vided for this.
If you are hanging the SECUNORM
590 vertically, place the holes
side by side; if you are hanging it
horizontally place the holes one
above the other.
Attaching the bracket using screws
Before screwing in the screws, it
is best to push one of the two
plastic plugs in the wall mount
bracket out (a)and fold the rub-
ber tab to one side (b).
Use a suitable screwdriver. Fold
the rubber tab back and fix again
with the plug.

HANGING UP THE SECUNORM 590
DURABILITY OF THE WALL MOUNT BRACKET
After attaching the wall mount
bracket you can clamp the
SECUNORM 590 in place with
a little push ...
... and remove it with a little pull.
Attaching the bracket using
cable ties
You should also push the cable
tie through the two external
holes in the base of the wall
mount bracket. This is also easier
if you fold the rubber tab away
beforehand.
It is best to attach further cable
ties to stabilise the wall mount
bracket between the rubber tab
and the base.
Then pull the cable ties together
on a suitable rod, thereby at-
taching the wall mount bracket.
The information on cable ties is to be understood merely as a suggestion as this type
of attachment depends significantly on the individual conditions at your premises.

The wall mount bracket is not produced by MARTOR. According to the manufacturer it is very resistant to
weathering. It is resistant to a limited degree to fats/oils, acids/lyes and solvents. There are no concerns
about water (including sea water), sodium hydroxide, sulphuric acid and conventional cleaning agents.

The screws in the cutting head and the end of the handle are secured.
However, we provide several replacements of the most commonly
used screw at the bottom on the blade cover (for changing the blade
and changing the dirt control device)in case you have to replace this.
It is best to place the SECUNORM 590 on a flat surface as shown
above to do this.

move the screw.
Insert the replacement screw
into the screw channel in the
blade cover and fix using a tool.
Use the other hand to push the
retainer onto the screw from the
inside.
Then ensure that the retainer is
attached securely by shaking it
slightly.
