Adjusting the Cutting-in Amount
When you want to perform accurate and fine adjustment of the cutting-in amount, such as when cut-
ting material with thin carrier paper, you can obtain good results by adjusting the amount of blade ex-
tension. Turn the cap portion of the blade holder to adjust the amount of blade extension.
The amount of blade extension (
) is 0 mm ( ) at minimum and 2.5 mm (98.42 mil) ( ) at maxi-
mum. An adjustment of 0.5 mm (0.02 in.) can be made by rotating the cap one full turn.
Rough estimate for the amount of blade extension:
Set the amount of blade extension ( ) to an amount that is the sum of the thickness of the material
portion ( ) and half ( ) the thickness of the carrier paper ( ).
MEMO
If you are cutting perforated lines in material without carrier paper, set the amount of blade extension ( ) so that
when the cutter pierces the material (
), the blade extends slightly. Pushing the blade out too far will damage the
blade and blade protector and hasten their deterioration, so exercise caution.
