TIP:
To cut two proportionate characters (such as a base character and its shadow)
using the
Fit to Page
mode, select the
Fit to Page
mode with the larger character
(shadow) selected first. Press the
OK
button to see the calculated size of the charac-
ter and press
CUT
. Note this size. Unload and remove that cut and load in your next
cutting mat and material. Then turn off the
Fit to Page
mode and select the noted
calculated size for the smaller (base) character. These two cuts (the shadow and the
base) will now be in perfect proportion to each other.
TIP:
After making your cutting selection, press the
OK
button to see the calculated size
of the cut.
TIP:
The length in this mode is dependent upon the currently selected unit of measurement
(Inches—1/4ths, Inches—1/10ths, cm, or mm). The
Fit to Length
measurement will adjust to
the nearest increment, so it will not create proportions between characters that are per-
fect to the dial size. If you want to be more exact, use mm as your unit of measurement.
The
Quantity
mode allows you to choose the
number of cuts you want of those selected on
the display. To use the
Quantity
mode, press
the
Quantity
button until the button is backlit
in green and the display reads “Quantity on”
and offers instructions. Then use the plus and
minus arrows (the Left and Right Arrow Buttons)
to indicate the quantity of cuts desired. Then
make your cutting selection and press
CUT
. The
display will show a running total of how many
cuts from the selected quantity have been cut.
If the quantity selected exceeds the amount
of available material, you can unload the mat
and load more. The machine will keep track of
the number of cuts made.
The
Fit to Page
mode maximizes the size of the
character on the page, overriding the size set
with the Size Dial. To use the
Fit to Page
mode,
press the
Fit to Page
button any time before
pressing the
CUT
button. The mode will be on
when the button is backlit in green. After
pressing
CUT
, the display will preview the cut
height and length before the machine begins
to cut.
The
Fit to Length
mode allows you to set the size
of the length of a designated cut. This mode
is only available in the Landscape mode. This
mode takes out the guesswork of setting the
height of each cut with the Size Dial and
hoping to make a cut a certain length. To use
the
Fit to Length
mode, press the
Fit to Length
button so that the button is backlit in green.
Then make your cut selection and determine
the length using the Size Dial on the right side
of the front of the machine. Press
CUT
and the
display will preview the height before the ma-
chine begins to cut. The
Fit to Length
mode will
apply to all cuts on the display screen.
Pressing the
OK
button once the quantity count has started will reset the cut tally back to
zero, whether or not you’ve adjusted the quantity using the Left and Right Arrow Buttons.
