Hazardous moving parts keep fingers and other body parts away!
Do not shake or drop the blade holder, a blade tip can fly out.
During an operation, do not touch any of the moving parts of this machine (such as the
carriage). Also be careful to make sure that clothing and hair do not get caught.
Always connect the power cable to a grounded outlet.
Always use the accessory power cable which is provided. Do not wire the power cable
so that it becomes bent or caught between objects.
Do not connect the power cable to branching outlet to which other machines are also

N o t e :
Never press the top release grip (the release grip is fully pressed when a clip
sound is heard) and pull the bottom release grip at the same time as the pictures shown
below. This will prevent you from disabling the pinch roller as the stop bar will not reach
the correct position and therefore will not be functioning.
