Operation Using the 5° Offset Cutter Cutter Bar Sight Line Strip The blade holder on the right hand side of the cutting head produces a 5° undercut.

Replacing Sightline Strips Although the sightline strips are very durable they can become damaged and worn with use, replacements are available through your Keencut distributor. Place a light pencil mark on the cutter bar where the strip starts and finishes Remove the old strip by just peeling it off, remove any adhesive left on the cutter bar but be careful not to affect the adhesive holding on the green silicon tape.
Operation Using the Bevel Cutter When cutting Flexo Plate always use a cutting mat to cut onto and ensure the blade depth is set to a minimum to cut through the material thickness. A cutting mat is supplied but experimentation using other materials such as good quality card can give good results.
