Operating Instructions.
For safety reasons, the cutter must not be operated when in open position.
As a precaution, the cable should be disconnected.
The rotating edge will cut through the paper approx. 37 mm (1.5")
in front of the printer's dot line. The paper feed should be adjusted
accordingly.
The following values are recommended for cutting between labels
and for variable length strip. In both cases, the start adjustment is
calculated to allow the paper web be pulled back after cutting, so
printing can start directly at the forward edge.
Density: 8 dots/mm (203.2 dpi)

Should the cutter inadvertently have been used to cut through any
adhesive, you will have to clean the "knife", which is a rotating shaft
with an edge. Tilt down the cutter and use a piece of tissue
moistened with isopropyl alcohol, or a similar solvent, to wipe clean
the shaft.
Do not force the spring-loaded anvil blade open, which may
damage the spring.
Turn off the power or disconnect the cutter before cleaning.
Keep fingers away from cutting parts!
