Instruction Manual

NOTES
• Remove body and handle from packaging and dispose of all packing
• It is important that your Badgemaker is operated in a secure position either
through use of G clamp or mounted onto a board or bolted to a stable
work surface.
• Recommended thickness for prints when used with acetate
between 80 and 115 gsm (eg. standard photocopying paper is
80gsm).
• After loading die, always ensure that it is located directly under the
top die.
• Metal rings and tops as well as plastic seals can stick together, so always check
that only one at a time is used.
• Never allow the machine handle to spring back.
• When cutting out your prints using the rotary cutter, ensure that you cut out on a suitable surface
such as Perspex, nylon or polypropylene. Any other surface used may damage the blade on the
cutter – suitable boards are available from London Emblem.
