OR SETUP MANUALLY USING THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Remove all protective packaging from cutter and accessories, including plastic clips from pinch rollers.
  2. Plug the round end of the power cord into the DC power port on the rear of the machine, then plug the opposite end into a standard electrical outlet. Press the power button to turn the cutter on.
  3. Carefully remove 45° blade from packaging and insert into socket on blade holder with the pointed side facing outwards.
  4. Twist the upper screw of the blade holder clockwise to expose less of the blade, or counterclockwise to expose more of the blade. The ideal length of exposed blade is about a credit card's width. Once the blade is properly adjusted, twist the inner screw to lock in the blade position.
  5. Insert blade holder into tool holder on the machine head with the blade facing down. Turn the knob on the tool holder clockwise to tighten.
  6. Lower the roller bar lever to adjust the pinch rollers and position as desired. Take material or cutting mat and align under the rollers. Raise the roller bar lever to secure the material or mat in place.

    Pinch Rollers
    The pinch roller levers can be flipped 'up' to increase the tension of the roller or 'down' to ease the tension.

    Position pinch rollers over the grit marks for optimal traction.
  7. Tap 'Cut Settings' on the touch screen then tap the current preset to view the entire menu. Select the preset that matches your material to automatically adjust the cut force and speed.
  8. Tap 'Test Cut' to cut a small shape out of your material to ensure the cut settings are correct. After testing, select the 'Home' icon to return to the home screen.
