When blade wears out, it will be caught by the vinyl and
results in stitch cut.
Blade holder tip gets caught by the vinyl depending on
the surface condition or type of media. In this case, try
cutting without using the blade extension function.
Cutter Protection is where the blade lands for cutting. If
there is scratch in the Cutter Protection, blade is caught
by the vinyl because it sticks deeper into the vinyl and
results in stitch cut.
There are bearings inside the Blade Holder. When the
bearings don't rotate smoothly, direction of the blade
slightly shifts from the correct direction and therefore, it
will be caught by the vinyl which results in stitch cut.
When Tool Height is not adjusted, blade hits the Bed
strongly and bounces which results in stitch cut. In most
cases, stitch cut at the beginning is caused by this
reason.
When Tool Pressure is not adjusted, blade hits the Bed
strongly and bounces which results in stitch cut.
When Holder part of Tool Carriage / Tool Carriage
ASS'Y are loose, the cutting is unstable and results in
the stitch cut.
When Tool doesn't move up and down smoothly, blade
sometimes hits the Bed strongly and bounces which
results in stitch cut. In most cases, stitch cut at the
beginning is caused by this reason.
When Solenoid Driver IC breaks, sometimes high
pressure will be generated. In this case, blade hits the
Bed strongly and bounces which results in stitch cut.
