Test

 Before cutting a new material or resetting the blade length, it is advisable to do a test cut. While in offline
mode, press the TEST button to cut a 1.5 cm square. This will indicate if your pressure settings and blade
length are sufficient. If necessary, change your settings, move your origin, and perform additional test cuts
until the material cuts a clean square. While in the online mode, pressing the TEST button will cause
nothing to happen.

Reset *** VERY IMPORTANT ***

 If you need to stop the cutting process, press the RESET button. Note: this is your PANIC button! All the
data will be cleared from memory and the carriage will return to the right side. At this point, you should turn
off the cutter, then unplug the USB cable from your computer. Once you have control of the software, plug
the USB cable back into the port and turn the cutter back on.
 In some instances, pressing RESET does not stop the cutter. Try pressing the ONLINE button instead.

1.06 Blades and Accessories

Testing Pen Holder:

 The testing pen should be used until you are comfortable with the operation of the Klic-N-Kut and know, with
certainty, where images will cut. To insert into the machine, unscrew the brass screw just a few turns. (Note
that the blade holder seat only opens slightly). Then push the testing pen into the blade holder seat forcing it
down until the tip or the pen is just above the paper.

Blades Included With Klic-N-Kut Purchase:

(A) Black Blade Holder:
 There are two kinds of blades included: The yellow/red capped blades are suited for cutting thinner
materials such as paper, vellum, vinyl, and thin cardstock. The white capped blades are much longer
blades and are well-suited for cutting thicker materials, such as heavily textured cardstock, chipboard
and craft foam.

(B) Silver Blade Holder:
 There are two kinds of blades included: The red capped blades are suited for cutting thinner materials
such as paper, vellum, vinyl, and thin cardstock. The blue capped blades are much longer blades and
are well-suited for cutting thicker materials, such as textured cardstock, chipboard and craft foam.
Note that the blue capped blade you received may be different from the Sliver 2 ones now sold as
replacements.
 Additionally, there are other tools sold separately that can fit into the blade holder, such as the fabric
blade, the engraving tip, and the punch tool. These tools only work with the silver blade holder and not
the original black blade holder. Note that it’s VERY IMPORTANT to insert the correct end into the
blade holder to avoid permanently damaging the blade holder. All of the “non-blade” ends are inserted
with the “useful/sharp end” protruding through the bottom.
