Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away any debris after each use.

What should I do if my die cuts are not fully cutting?

Check your plate stack and add a shim or adjust the pressure. Ensure your die is facing the cutting plate.

How do I store the cutting plates?

Store the plates flat in a cool, dry place when not in use.

Are the plates reversible?

Yes, to ensure even wear, flip and rotate the plates.

How do I know when to replace the plates?

If the plates are severely warped, scratched, or no longer providing clean cuts, it is time for a replacement.

Troubleshooting

Die cuts not fully cutting.

Check your plate stack. You may need to add a shim (like a piece of cardstock) or adjust the pressure by tightening the machine's rollers. Make sure the die is facing the cutting plate.

Embossing is not deep enough.

Ensure you are using the correct plate configuration for embossing folders. You may need to experiment with shims to achieve the desired depth.

Plates are warping.

Avoid applying excessive pressure. Ensure the plates are stored flat. If warping is severe, replace the plates.

Plates are scratched or marked.

These marks are normal with use. However, excessive scratching may indicate incorrect usage or the need for a new plate.
