CUTTING
The standard GRAPHIK blade holders can be set to cut at different depths and in either
direction by simply adjusting or flipping the blade over in the holder. You can also push
or pull the cutting head to suit your own comfort.
Once the blade is set move the cutting head near to the start of the cut, press down
the blade holder and push or pull to make the cut. Only light finger pressure is usually
required to depress the blade holder so most of your effort can be directed into pushing
the blade through the material.
SCORING HARD PLASTICS
Many hard plastics such as Acrylic can be scored and snapped by hand or over the
edge of a bench (use hand and eye protection). The back edge of the GRAPHIK blade
can
be used as a scoring blade, position the plastic sheet in the cutter and draw the blade
backwards across the surface applying downward pressure to the blade holder, some
plastics will benefit from being scored a number of times before snapping.
CUTTING PVC FOAMBOARDS
PVC is a very tough and durable material, to obtain a straight and smooth edge cut the
material slowly, if you cut too fast the board will rip and give a jagged uneven edge.
Considerably higher cutting performance is obtained from warm room temperature
boards, if you store your boards in an unheated room in winter you will find them much
