Post by: EarlBald on December 12, 2013, 02:29:01 PM: Sheesh, first my message had a "bad gateway," then I was timed out and couldn't post. Take three ...

How do you replace the ATX blade? I know I sound stupid, but I can't figure out if I need to detach the adapter before removing the blade. I'd rather leave the adapter attached to the holder. Can anyone help? Thanks.

It's not like the sport where you push it to one side then slide it off, but a similar technique is what I use. Basically push it left or right until the cartridge is past the adapter then angle it down away from the adapter. When putting a new blade on remember the blades fave the wheels.
Most importantly leave the blade cover on while changing/replacing the blade.
