Using roll material
The STX-8/7 can be loaded with material up to 1100 mm (43-1/4")
in length. However, the cutting area is only up to 1,000 mm (39-5/
16").
When using roll material, cut off from the roll a piece of material
that is equal to the length required for cutting, plus a margin, and
load this cut piece on the STX-8/7 for cutting. Material cannot be
loaded on the STX-8/7 while still attached to the roll.

Peel off the backing paper for the sheet setup guide.
Using the included sheet setup guide makes it possible to load lengthy material accurately.
NOTICE
Once the sheet setup guide has been affixed, do not peel it off. Doing so may damage the tape surface of the
sheet setup guide, making it unusable. Also, if peeled off, some tape surface may remain on the STX-8,
adversely affecting cutting.
