Adjusting a Newtaper is quite the task since you have to take the handle off for starters and expose the four screws on the two blade holder tabs-this is how to adjust the blades to make accurate tape cuts.
You loosen the two screws on which blade is causing the problem, and it's a very time consuming process due to the fact that you loosen the screws, move the blade holder tabs a titch, snug down the screws, press down on the punch assembly without the handle to see if the blades just rub against the dieplate.
If not, then you have to loosen up the screws, readjust for clearance and try again. If the clearance is good, then try a splice without the handle by pressing down on the dieblock.
If you got it right, then tighten down the screws, reassemble the handle back over the punch block assembly and give it a try.
