Gunnar Rapido For Sale

Post by KiwiCarol »

I bought a Gunnar Rapido earlier in the year from this site,
This Gunnar Rapido, is a 20 year old machine, has cosmetic signs of wear and tear,
The deck in perfectly flat, the cutter and controller both work very well, the hose clamps as well work fine.
When I purchased it I didn’t see it working as the seller had purchased a new one, he told me that on large (circa 80cm apertures) it was starting to hook ever so slightly on the 3rd cut, meaning the blade heads inwards toward the top of the aperture, and that Sarah at Gunnar believes in could be the bearing just need a nip up, but in worse case it could need new bearings (I'm only saying this so you are aware, anything under this size cuts true and straight)
So I set it up and the larger mounts did have the curve as he explained, so my son made some adjustments but there is still some slight hooking, (see last photo very slight hook to one corner) with a little more time and tinkering the error might be corrected, also Sarah at Gunner did say she would help with any software or bearing issue.
Saying this we are closing our gallery so no longer have the need for it.
It comes with the PC with the software downloaded, it has some spare blades. Buyer will be able to see it working,
Price £500 ono

Hi,
I’m very very interested in this Gunnar rapido you have for sale.
Is it available straight away? And does it come with everything needed to get running straight away such as compressor, spare blades etc.....

If so I would be very very interested in purchasing this from you

Also, what is the maximum size mount board it can take?

Hi Marty,

Yes the Mount Cutter is available straight away, It has everything to get started, with a box of spare blades but It doesn't come with a compressor.
It will cut a full standard sheet of mountboard, (not Jumbo)
Let me know if you need more information,
Carol.
