YOU SHOULD NOT NEED TO ADJUST THE SQUARING OF THE MACHINE!
SQUARING THE CUTTER BAR AND MEASURING ARM is carried out in our factory before despatch on all new
machines. Therefore adjustment should never be necessary.
ALIGN THE MEASURING ARM WITH THE END
PLATE
Attach the Measuring Arm (A) to the End Plate (B) and
tighten the Locking Screw (C).
Lift the Cutter Bar and place a straight edge along the
Endplate and the Measuring Arm, check they are in
alignment. If not, loosen the two nuts (D) on the
underside of the Measuring Arm, reposition the Arm
with the End Plate and retighten the nuts.
SETTING THE MEASURING ARM AND END PLATE SQUARE WITH THE CUTTER BAR
Take a matboard at least 65 x 65cm (25” x 25”) in size.
Clamp it under the Cutter Bar and trim off approx 1cm
(1/2”) from the left hand edge using the vertical blade,
ensuring the bottom edge is in close contact with the
Measuring Arm.
Turn the mat a quarter of a turn counter-clockwise and
trim the same amount from the second edge.
Repeat for the third edge.
And again for the fourth edge, always making sure the
bottom edge of the mat is in close contact with the
Measuring Arm
