Abstract

An improved adjusting apparatus for a cutting bar received in an axial slot of a blade cylinder for cutting web material. The improvement enables an operator to adjust the tilt of the cutting bar relative to the axis of rotation of the blade cylinder to accommodate out-of-parallel conditions in the blade cylinder or mounting slot so that the cutting edge of the blade held by the cutting bar is parallel to the surface of an adjacent anvil cylinder, which supports the web being cut.
