3-2  Installing the Cutter

Do not touch the tip of the blade with your fingers, as the cutting performance of the blade will be impaired.

Always make sure the power switch is OFF before installing (or replacing) the cutter.

 Installation

(1) Insert a blade into the blade holder until it snaps into place

with an audible click.

After detaching the blade holder from the tool carriage, do not tighten the tool setscrew. Leave this screw loose.
Tightening the screw makes the hole for inserting the holder to progressively smaller, which on turn makes it difficult to install
the blade holder.

 Removal

As shown in the figure below, support the tool setscrew from below and install the blade holder. Cutting quality may become
poor if installed without supporting the screw in this way.

2.5 mm : For a material included with the unit, or a general type

of equivalent material

0 mm

: For materials where the carrier paper is thin with respect

to the material (material thickness), and cutting is carried
out without fine adjustment of blade force
For cases where material thickness is not accurately
known

* When set to "0 mm," perform a cutting test and gradually extend

the blade.  If the blade leaves a faint mark on the carrier paper,
the amount of blade extension is optimal.
