Maintenance For Your Cutter
Cutting Strips
for your vinyl cutter sit directly under the cutting blade as it moves back and forth
across the width of the cutter. Cutting strips will need to be replaced periodically - we recommend it
be done every six months if you use your vinyl cutter continuously.
You might need to change out your Cutting Strips sooner if you start experiencing an uneven depth of
cut, or your material is peeling up even on slow speeds.
To replace your Cutting Strip:
• USCutter stocks replacement cutting strips.
Go to USCUTTER.com and search using the keyword: Cutting Strip.
• Use a weeding tool or other pointed tool to pry up the existing strip.
(For best results, start at either end of the strip.)
• Lay replacement into the channel and use a heat gun or hair dryer to
heat the strip up as you squeeegee it into place.
• Use a knife to trim the ends of the strip so that it fits in the channel.
Cutting Blades
wear out with use and the tips of the blades can snap just like the point
of a sharp pencil. (This is particularly true of the 60 degree blade.) You should also periodically visi-
bly inspect your blades and if you see visible chips in the edge it’s best to replace the blade
with a new one. (This is also a good time to wipe away any vinyl debris that has built up inside the
blade holder.)
You might also consider the replacement of your blade if you develop problems weeding or other-
wise experience problems with cut quality.
Refer to the manual section on Blade Set-up
for instructions on how to install
replacement blades and remember to dispose of your old blade safely by putting it in an
aluminum can or other closed hard container.
