Printed on a ring around the cap are blade depth numbers ranging from 2-12 and an arrow on the blade holder beneath it. Line the arrow up with the numbered setting for different blade depths. 2. The higher the number you select, the further out the blade protrudes. The lower the number you select, less of the blade is exposed. Lower number for thinner material Higher number for thicker material Thicker materials like heavy cardstock and template material will need more of the blade to cut through and therefore a higher number needs to be selected. Thinner materials like vinyl only need a small amount of the blade to be exposed to make the cut, therefore a lower number will be optimal. For best results, always try a test cut first so that you can make adjustments.

Blue Cap Blade for thick materials Maintenance • Cleaning the blade CAUTION: Always unplug Machine before removing or installing Blade Holder. After several uses, the cutting blade may not be cutting as well as it did when it was new. In order to extend the life of your blade, some cleaning may be required. Remove the blade from the blade holder (see steps 2 – 4 of “Replacing the Cutting Blade” below) and place on a clean paper towel. Use Isopropyl Alcohol (rubbing alcohol) to rub the blade until it is clean, being careful to avoid the sharp edge. You can clean the inside of the blade holder using the Artistic Hook (sold separately). • Replacing the cutting blade CAUTION: CUTTING HAZARD Keep fingers away from exposed blade. Blade release button Clamp Screw 1. Open the front cover by lifting it up to expose the carriage and rollers. 2. Loosen the blade holder clamp by turning the clamp screw counterclockwise and remove the blade holder. Blade 3. On the top of the blade holder is a blade release button. Push down on that carefully to release the blade. Non-Cutting Side 4. Carefully grab and remove the blade. 5. Remove the safety cap from the new cutting blade and carefully insert the round (non-cutting side) of the blade into the hole in the blade holder. The blade will be held in place by a magnet so that it won’t fall out. • Cleaning the Cutting Mat Cutting mats retain their adhesiveness for many uses. If you clean it after each use, the cutting mat will no longer remain sticky. When your cutting mat no longer holds your material, or if the materials get caught in the rollers, it is time to replace your cutting mat. 1. After each use, make sure that all leftover material and debris is removed from the cutting mat. The Artistic Sraper (sold separately) is a useful tool for doing this. 2. When not in use, replace the protective covering over the cutting mat to keep dust and particles from gathering on it. Edge Cutter FAQ / Trouble shooting Artistic Edge machine will not turn on. • Unplug the system from the wall. Check all components of power supply to be sure they are plugged in properly. When you are certain everything is connected, plug back into the wall and push the power button on the front of the unit. Artistic Edge is Freezing or Stopping and won’t Respond to Directional Buttons. • Turn off the Artistic Edge. Wait 10 seconds and press the power button again to restart. Artistic Edge is not Cutting with Quality that it Used To. • Your cutting blade could be dirty or worn. Clean your cutting blade. If this does not help, replace the cutting blade with a new one. • Experiment with Cutting Pressure and Blade Depth. It could be that you are not using the proper settings for the material. Corners and Edges of my Cutting Design are Distorted. • Consider replacing your cutting blade. It may have dulled. • Check the Cutting Pressure in Artistic SimpleCut, it may be too high for the material. Change to a lower number to lower the pressure. • The cutting mat may have lost its adhesiveness. Try a new cutting mat. • A fast cutting speed can pull up and distort corners on thin materials. Slow down the speed in Artistic SimpleCut to a lower speed. • If the blade depth is too high, you may have distortion. Lower the blade depth. Machine is Cutting Outside of the Material • Use “Trace” function in Artistic SimpleCut to make sure that the design fits on your material. • Adjust the starting point of the cut accordingly. • Material is shifting from original position during cutting. • The cutting mat may have lost its adhesiveness. Try a new cutting mat. • If there is a sticky side to your material, put that face down and mirror design in Artistic SimpleCut so that the cut is correct. Cutout cannot be removed from Cutting Mat • Use the Artistic Scraper (sold separately) to remove intricate designs or adhesive materials from cutting mat. Laser Alignment is not working properly. • Calibrate the laser by opening a design and clicking File>Export>to Crystals/Cutter. In the top right menu click the button that says “Calibrate”. Follow on screen prompts to calibrate your laser. 10 Artistic 15X” Cutter Wireless Set-up Guide 11 Connecting Edge directly to computer wirelessly (for Edge 15X only) 1.

Fabric needs to be stabilized. It can be stabilized with a fusible web, iron-on tear away embroidery stabilizer or be heavily starched. A product like Terial Magic* and Web Bond*can be used to stabilize the fabric so it can be cut. b. Iron on Vinyl comes with carrier/transfer paper attached to the right side of the product. This means that the design needs to be a mirrored image and cut just deep enough to cut the vinyl, but not the carrier. The carrier is heat resistant so it can tolerate the heat of a press or iron. c. Paper does not need any additional preparation. 8. Go to File>Export>To Crystals/Cutter then select the cutter options you would like and cut. The pink dot on the cut diagram shows where the machine will start cutting.
