Troubleshooting
Die not cutting cleanly
Ensure the material is within the recommended thickness range. Try running the die through the machine a second time, or experiment with adding a shim to your cutting sandwich.
Cut pieces are difficult to remove
Ensure the ejection foam is correctly positioned. If still difficult, gently flex the die or use a pick tool to carefully remove the cut pieces.
Die is sticking to the material
Try using a piece of wax paper or parchment paper between your material and the die. This can help prevent sticking.
