Material cannot be cut properly.
Has the blade tip been adjusted?
Check whether the amount of blade extension has been adjusted. For information on how to adjust the amount of blade extension,
see "3.1 Adjusting and Replacing the Blade."
If the amount of blade extension is too short for the material
Cut lines may be discontinuous or unattractive, or the cutting results may be misaligned.
Adjust the length of blade extension to be the same as the thickness of the material.
If the amount of blade extension is too long for the material
The material may peel off during cutting.
Shorten the amount of blade extension and change the driver setting to make the cutting speed slower.
Is the blade holder secured in place?
If the blade holder is not secured in place, it may be impossible to cut material.
Install securely so that the screws do not loosen while cutting is in progress.
Is the blade broken?
Cut lines may be discontinuous or unattractive, or the cutting results may be misaligned.
Replace with a new blade.
Is the size of the loaded material set correctly?
Material smaller than the set cutting range has been loaded. Load material that matches the cutting range.
Is the cutting speed correct?
The cutting speed is too fast. Change the driver setting to obtain a slower cutting speed. Please refer to the relevant help screens
for the driver to set the cutting speed.
Is the driver for the model you're using installed?
Make sure the driver for the model you're using is installed.
If a driver for an incorrect model is installed, install the correct driver for the model you're using.
When cutting material measuring 500 mm (19-5/8 in.) or more, the material becomes displaced.
When material measuring 500 mm (19-5/8 in.) or more is loaded, then depending on its type, it may become misaligned.
If this happens, then either replace the material with a different type, or reload the material.
Cut lines are partially dotted (discontinuous).
The cause may be any of the follow.
Is the tip of the blade broken?
Replace with a new fresh, then use.
Is there any buildup of dust or material adhesive on the tip of the blade?
If there is buildup of dust or material adhesive, remove the blade and clean the tip.
Are there material scraps inside the blade holder?
Detach the tip of the blade holder and clean out any material inside the blade holder. See "4.4 Cleaning the Blade Holder" for the
procedure.
