Adjusting the Blade Length
If the blade is extended too far in relation to the thickness of the medium being cut, it will damage
the cutting mat. Be sure to adjust the blade length correctly.
CAUTION
To prevent cutting your fingers, always handle the cutter blade with caution.
(1) Adjust the blade length by turning the blade-length adjustment knob. Turn the knob in direction
"A" to extend the blade, or in direction "B" to retract the blade. When the knob is turned by
one scale unit, the blade moves approximately 0.1 mm. One full turn of the knob moves the
blade approximately 0.5 mm.
