Abstract: The present invention provides a method for trimming a side portion of a pre-manufactured leading-edge protection element for a wind turbine blade. The element comprises a first side portion and a second side portion, the first side portion, when mounted to the wind turbine blade, extending from the leading edge and along a part of a pressure side of the wind turbine blade, and the second side portion, when mounted to the wind turbine blade, extending from the leading edge and along a part of a suction side of the wind turbine blade, or vice versa. The method comprises steps of: providing a support structure and a first cutting tool; arranging element on the support structure and fixating the element to the support structure, and cutting along a predetermined cutting path, whereby the leading-edge protection element is trimmed to a predetermined length. A corresponding system is also provided.
