crimps 6mm through 50mm coil, with an adjustable
binding length from 3.5-inches to 14-inches. The
Marlon 350 is capable of 50 cycles per minute, and
features a coil waste chute that uses standard plastic
grocery bags for clipping waste containment. The
Marlon 350 is an operator friendly machine that is
easy to set up, allowing for quick changeover from
one coil diameter to another. We are confident that
your new Marlon 350 Auto Crimper will be a

BLADE SELECTION
The Marlon 350 Auto Crimper features interchangeable cutter
blades. Your Marlon 350 is shipped with the B-size cutter blades
installed. Use the following chart to determine what blade size is
required for the coil diameter you are crimping.
A-size blades: 6mm and 7mm coil (Sold separately)
Note: Oversized punch patterns (.248) or punch patterns with a large backstop (distance
from paper edge to hole) will not work well with the A – size cutter head.
B-size blades: 8mm through 35mm coil up to and including .093
filament diameter. 38mm through 50mm coil .103 filament
diameter with air cylinders in the C position
C-size blades: 18mm through 50mm coil (Sold separately)
The cutter blades and cutter head assemblies have been color
coded to reduce the chance of improper assembly.
1.) Universal parts of the cutter head assembly that are used for
all three sets of knives are marked white. These parts are used
all of the time.
2.) A-size parts of the cutter assembly are marked red.
3.) B-size parts of the cutter assembly are marked green.
4.) C-size parts of the cutter assembly are marked yellow.
Note: Some parts of the cutter assembly are marked with two
colors. These parts are used on two of the three cutter
assembly configurations.

The following information describes the changes needed to switch from the B to A-size and B to C-size
cutter assemblies. Refer to the color codes on page four to select the proper parts when changing from one
blade configuration to another. Refer to pages five and six for part descriptions.
Changing from B to A-size blades:
1.) Disconnect the air supply from Marlon 350.
2.) Remove the top cover from the machine.
3.) Unhook the springs from the studs on both sides.
4.) Remove the three 10-24nylock nuts from each side.
5.) The left clamp blade is nowfree.
6.) Remove the right anvil blade by lifting it straight up.
7.) Remove the left forming blade by lifting it straight up.
8.) Detach the right cutter blade fromthe clevis. (Use a straight blade screwdriver to pry the top
E clip off of the clevis pin. Slidethe clevis pin out of the clevis; the right cutter blade is now
free.)
9.) Remove the three .126” B-size spacers from each side.
10.)Remove the right forming blade by lifting it straight up. The right clampblade is now free.
11.)Detach the left cutter blade from the clevis. (See step 8 for details.)
12.)Leave the left anvil blade on, because it’s usedin all three setups.
13.)Reassemble the cutter blade assemblies in reverse order using the correct color-coded parts.
14.)Use the fifth .094” A-size spacerinstead of the .062” spacer on the left hand center stud.

C-CUTTER BLADE INSTALLATION
PICTURED ABOVE ARE THE C-SIZE CUTTER BLADES.
THE CLEVIS PINS INSTALLED ON THE C-CUTTER
BLADES ARE NEEDED TO PUSH THE CLAMP BLADES.
DO NOT CONNECT THE AIR CYLINDERS TO THESE
PINS. THE AIR CYLINDER SHOULD BE CONNECTED
TO THE C-CUTTER BLADES USING THE OPEN HOLE
AT THE REAR OF THE BLADE. THE CLEVIS PIN USED
TO DRIVE THESE BLADES IS IN THE AIR CYLINDER
CLEVIS. THE C-KIT FURNISHED WITH YOUR
MACHINE HAS THE PINS INSTALLED CORRECTLY.
CONNECT THE AIR
CYLINDER TO THE
HOLE AT THE REAR
OF C-CUT BLADES.
THE TWO CLEVIS
PINS INSTALLED ON
THESE BLADES ARE
