Adjusting the head height
The head can be adjusted in height, according to thickness of a work used for plotting.
The head height must be set according to the work thickness. If the head height is too low, it may
affect the plotting quality and even damage the work or the machine itself. Be sure that the head
height is correct
• Adjust the head height before setting a work on the machine.
• Leave at least 3mm clearance when plotting on T-shirts or other fluffy materi-
als. Otherwise, the head will touch the fluff and affect the print quality.
