402 Logan 2000 Push style Hand Bevel Mountcutter

Aluminium chassis with the blade held on a sliding holder

The blade slides through a precision machined slot in the base of the chassis, which stabilises it for better cutting.

It does that by holding the blade at the correct angle as it is pushed into the mountboard at the correct angle. This helps minimise 'hooking' at the start of a cut. There is an adjustable stop to set blade depth.

The cutting tip of the blade is not visible, but guide marks on the holder indicate start and stop positions for the cut.

Made in USA. Use Logan 270D mountcutter blades.

Upgrades:

The #2000 slides alongside a guide rail and can become a #302 which hooks onto a guide rail by fitting the plastic guides, Lion ref 6131.

The same guides can be fitted to the #4000, which then becomes a #702. The #302 and #702 cutters are only included in kits and are not available separately.

With the guides fitted, the #2000 and #4000 will also hook onto Keencut Safety Edges.

Are you new to cutting mounts?

LION stock an extensive range of mount cutters, from Logan hand bevel cutters through Logan baseboard cutters up to the professional Keencut and Fletcher cutters. Every one of these needs self-training, patience and experience to achieve optimum quality results. This means several hours practice to gain some proficiency. Essentially, the higher the price the greater the level of quality, engineering and efficiency in use.

For example, all Logan baseboard machines have a fibre board base which is very good for their purpose but the aluminium bases of the professional cutters are more dimensionally stable. Customer assembly is required on all makes of mountcutter. They can only be returned for credit if it is clearly established that there is a manufacturing fault. We recommend that you download and read the free 88pp ‘Home Picture Framing’ book, offered with all Logan products.
