b) Blade holder
Inserting the film
● Always insert the material into the device from the rear.
● Pull the film up to the cutting bar to correctly set the zero point.
● If inserting a roll instead of a film sheet, you can use the supplied holder integrated into the
base to ensure the film is rolled off cleanly.
● When inserting, please ensure that the film is inserted straight to prevent warping during
transport of the film. Inserting a film even a few millimeters off angle can result in significant
deviation of the film when processing large cut jobs.
● You may insert the film into the device at any point, provided the pressure roller is in the
area of the black and white rectangles on the crossbar.
● Fixate both pressure rollers by flipping the clamping lever on the rear
right side of the
device.
● The contact pressure can be changed by tensioning the springs on the
individual pinch
rollers, should this be necessary.
Cutting test
● Execute the cutting test by clicking the „Test“ button. The vinyl cutter
will cut a triangle
with a rectangular border into the inserted film/vinyl at the currently saved zero point.
Afterwards, the vinyl cutter will move the film up by 20cm, so that you can easily check the
test cut.
● You can check the adjustment of the blade holder as well as the contact pressure with this
cutting test. The inserted material should be cut cleanly and straight during the cutting test;
the carrier material should not be damaged.
● After reviewing the test cut, press "OK" to move the film back to the zero point.
● If the carrier material has been cut through, either the contact
pressure is set too high
or the blade or blade holder are set incorrectly. Change these settings and perform the
cutting test again.
● Also readjust if the vinyl was cut imprecisely or to an insufficient depth.
