Cleaning Your Machine

Over time and due to normal use, the machine will become dirty or dusty. This
will happen primarily on the Pressure Plate and Cam Cover (Figure H, page
9). To clean, use only isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol) poured onto a clean
paper towel and rub over the Cam Cover and Pressure Plate until it evaporates.
Use cotton swabs to get into areas the paper towel doesn't reach. With another
clean dry paper towel, wipe off any residue. Isopropyl alcohol may also be used
to clean the Base Plate and Instruction Label. It is a good idea to clean the
machine every time the Cutting Pad is changed. NEVER use bleach or abrasive
cleaners on the machine. The machine DOES NOT need to be oiled or lubricated.

Keeping Dies Clean

It is important to use the Die Pick (included in the Tool Kit) to clean out the
bits of paper and other materials that build up in the joints of the dies (where
the cutting or creasing rule meets). If dies are not kept clean, the scraps will
eventually push the rule slightly apart. This cleaning is especially important if
cutting thick materials such as Flexible Magnetic Sheets, Pop-Up Sponge or
Self-Adhesive Felt.

Recognizing Worn Bearings

After many years of use, the Bearings may need replacing. If any of the
following situations occur, the Pressure Bearings and/or End Bearings need
to be replaced:
Arc-shaped end pieces of the Pressure Bearing Assembly fall out.

Needle Bearing withdraws from the Pressure Bearing Assembly as

evidenced by small pins showing or falling from the machine. Do not use
the machine once this has happened, as damage may occur.
A test cut using four pieces of construction paper results in a clean cut

(through all four pieces) on the left side of the machine and no cut on the
right side (or vice versa).
An End Bearing sticks out on one side of the machine. Do not use the

machine once this has happened, as damage may occur.
