Pressure Adjustments
• If the blade cuts all the way through but the stop and start points do not meet OR the paper is
bunched up in the corners, the pressure is too high. Decrease it.
• If the blade does not cut through the paper, increase the pressure.
IMPORTANT: Do not be afraid to raise the pressure. Please DO NOT raise above 250. The
machine will not cut above this number.
