Safety Precautions
CAUTION IS STRONGLY ADVISED WHEN USING THIS EQUIPMENT
Device requires installation. Operation of this device requires use of
sharp blades and caution should be taken to make sure that fingers do
not get caught in moving gears during operation.
Disconnect power during assembly, service and maintenance. Vinyl
cutters are subject to static build-up. Use of anti-static devices
including mats and anti-static vinyl systems may be required in some
environments.
Vinyl cutting is a creative medium and can be an enjoyable hobby or
classroom learning experience, but this vinyl cutter is not a toy and

Site Selection & Preparation
If you are setting up for the first time please take a moment to refer to the Packaging Guide to take account of all the included components and accessories. For help with Stand Assembly, please refer to included instructions.
The first step to setting up your cutter is finding a good location for the machine. Consider these factors when you are selecting a suitable place:
Place your cutter near the PC that will be used to drive content to the vinyl cutter.
You will need to have access to both the front and rear of the machine for operation and changing out of vinyl rolls. Find a space that has adequate access and where the roll can roll freely on the rollers or on the table top.
Stability is key. Your MH cutter is a precision cutting device and the carriage head will move quickly back and forth across the vinyl. If it vibrates due to an uneven or unstable surface, it will result in issues with your cut. Whether placing the machine on a stand or table top, choose a level and stable surface.
Fans located inside of the cutter can draw in outside dust from the area surrounding the cutter. Excessive buildup of dust can cause either mechanical or electrical malfunctions. Keeping the cutter as dust free as possible will help ensure trouble free operation. Try to find an area for the cutter that will be free of any excessive dust and use the supplied cover when not in use.
All cutters will produce a small amount of noise while operating. Please take this into consideration when selecting a location for your cutting purposes.
A 110 outlet with a grounding plug is required for operation of the vinyl cutter/plotter and you will want internet access for our PC in order to download software and drivers required for operation. DO NOT attempt to use the cutter when it has not been properly grounded.

Will cut a small test shape so that the current force and speed settings of the cutter can be tested. You can use this to determine the proper cutting speed and force settings needed for dierent materials without wasting large amounts of material from cutting full designs.
Used to test z-axis functionality (by dropping the blade down if the carriage is functioning properly) or to set a new origin point when the machine is in its oine mode.
Adjusts the cutting speed. A cutting speed of 300 mm/s is a reasonable default speed that can be used for most cuts. When working with smaller and more detailed images, a slower speed may be required. When working with larger and less detailed images, a higher speed can be used to shorten the operation time.
F+ / F- BUTTONS
Adjusts the cutting force. A cutting force of 100g is a good general starting place to work from when trying to determine the force needed for a specific material. All cuttable materials will dier in the amount of force needed so proper testing should always be made to determine the amount of force to use. The amount of force used should be enough to fully penetrate the material to be cut while not enough to cut through the backing material.

Connecting The Cutter To A Computer
Attach the power cord to the cutter and then plug in the unit and turn on the power.
If using the Serial Cable to connect your cutter to a computer:
If you are using a Serial Cable to connect your cutter to a computer then no further setup is necessary. Simply connect one end of the cable to the cutter and the other end to a computer and setup is complete. If you have more than one serial connection on your computer or you are experiencing communication issues between your cutter and computer then you may wish to verify that the correct COM port is being used in your software setup, but for most users the COM port will be COM1.
If using the USB Cable to connect your cutter to a computer:
Most current versions of Windows and the current VinylMaster release already have drivers pre-loaded. If, howver you find you still need to install drivers go to www.uscuttersupport.com/mh-support-page and select the driver that supports your older Windows version.
INSTALLING VINYL MASTER SOFTWARE
Your MH Vinyl Cutter comes bundled with VinylMaster Cut software, an easy to use software with the tools to help you take your projects from concept to a ready to cut computer image file.
You can download and install the VinylMaster Cut software at www.uscutter.com/download, and you will need the key code (sometimes referred to as a PSN) packaged with this cutter to activate the software.
Training for VinylMaster is all done via short videos accessed through the software.

Preparing For Cutting
If you are going to cut from a scrap or single sheet instead of a roll, then skip the next step on placing a vinyl roll. All other steps will be the same.
1
Place the roll on top of the stand rollers.
For heat press vinyl, please flip the roll.
Release the pinch rollers release levers.
2
19
www.uscutter.com
425.481.3555
3
Feed the vinyl underneath the pinch rollers (if working from a single sheet instead of a roll, the vinyl can also be feed from the front).
4
Adjust the pinch rollers so there is one roller located on each side of the vinyl (and, on models with 3 or more rollers, one roller near the center). Avoid lowering a pinch roller to the gap between the two feed rollers.
20
www.uscutter.com
425.481.3555
5
Leave a gap of between 1/2”-1 1/2” from the edge of the roller and the edge of the vinyl on both sides.
6
Engage the Pinch Rollers by pushing down on the Pinch Roller Release Levers.
If the cutter is not already on, turn it on now.
21
www.uscutter.com
425.481.3555
If you would like to change the position of where the cut will be made:
1
2
Press the OFFLINE/PAUSE button to enter oine mode.
Adjust the vinyl to where you want to make your cut to start by using the Up and Down arrow keys on the control panel.
3
Now, adjust the blade to where you want your cut to start by using the Left and Right arrow keys.
22
www.uscutter.com
425.481.3555
4
Now press the Origin button to tell the cutter that this is the location where you would like the cut to begin.
When choosing a starting location for your design, remember that the process will start in the bottom right area of the design. Please leave enough room to the left of and behind the starting location to finish your cut.
If you would like to make other adjustments to the pressure, speed, or other settings you can do so now. If you are setting up for your first cut with the machine then the default values should be a good starting point.
If you make any adjustments to your cutter, make sure that you return to the main screen before you attempt to cut.

Making Your First Test Cut
A Basic Guide To Vinyl Cutting
Now that you’ve got your system fully assembled let’s take a moment to test it and also take moment to learn a bit about how to “fine tune” the machine so that it will do quality cuts on the dierent materials you’ll be cutting. To do this we’ll do a standard test cut, which when competed will a simple triangle inside of a square. Load the material roll and adjust the pinch rollers. Remember to make sure the top roller is placed so that there is a bottom roller (called the “grit roller”) beneath it. Remember to line the material up so that it is moving straight through the feed area, and resist the temptation to run the material close to
the edge of the cutter feed area or you increase the risk of a mis-feed that will wrinkle your vinyl. (See the graphic on the top of pg. 21 for an example.) Assuming you’re cutting standard signage vinyl, you’ll want to use your 45° blade. If you received vinyl along with your cutter package, chances are very good it’s a standard GreenStar or Oracal signage vinyl. Now, find the TEST button on the cutter control pad and press it. It should cut a pattern that looks like this:
This Test Cut will help you to calibrate the machine for this material. Examine this cut and use a weeding tool or exacto knife to weed the square out while keeping the triangle on the paper. (“Weeding” is the word for removing the cut vinyl in the design.) Use this simple diagram to make adjustments. There’s a certain amount of trial and error to it at first, but you’ll quickly get a feel for it.

Troubleshooting
PROBLEM SOLUTION
The cutter performs erratically
during cuts, stops cutting
before the cut is finished, or
cuts lines that do not appear in
the design.
After the first cut is made,
subsequent cuts are made over
the top of the original, or vinyl
is fed backwards until it loses
contact with the rollers.
Cuts are jagged or inconsistent.
Slashes are made across the
vinyl from the blade movement
during cutting.
Some computers do not work well when connected via the USB port of the cutters. If you are having problems while cutting and are using the USB cable to connect from your cutter to computer, you may wish to try the serial cable connection to avoid further problems. If a serial cable connection is not available on your computer, you can try a third party USB to serial connector or a PCI card serial adapter for your computer.
After a cut is made, you will need to reset the origin of the cutter. If the origin is not set again, the first origin will remain in the cutter and the cutter will return to this position before making any further cuts. To reset the origin; from the main screen of the cutter, press the Oine/Pause button on and then press the Origin button.
The Blade may be dulled or damaged. Replace with a new blade and try again. Make sure that the blade can turn freely (by attempting to turn it with your fingers while the release button of the Blade Carriage is pressed).
Adjust the blade depth of the Blade Carriage (page 10) and Force setting on the cutter (page 14) until you are getting solid, uniform cuts. Start with a blade depth of around 1/64th of an inch and a pressure setting of 100g and try an increased pressure setting before attempting to increase the blade depth.
If the blade is protruding too far from the Blade Carriage then it can score and cut material during normal operations. If this is occurring, the blade needs to be adjusted so that it is protruding a minimal distance from the carriage.
Vinyl not feeding straight and
the right most Pinch Roller will
not move.
Cuts are warped and
inconsistent.
Sometimes, during shipping or movement of the machine, the right pinch roller will become stuck on a screw located on the back of the machine. If this occurs and is aecting your cutting, press forcefully against the pinch roller until it becomes dislodged from its position. If needed, remove the screw to reposition the pinch roller in the desired position.
Sometimes, during shipping or movement of the machine, the Carriage Arm can be dislodged from its track. Make sure that the 2 white wheels behind the carriage arm are both resting securely on top of (not in front) of the track. If the wheels are not on the track, gently lift the carriage arm and press back until both wheels are resting on the track.

Care and Maintenance
Some Cutter Parts will require periodic replacement:
• The blades packaged with your MH cutter will dull with time and usage. In general, the blades with the sharpest points like the 60 degree blade will dull fastest in much the same way that a very sharp pencil point will wear down quickly. To keep your cuts clean and to avoid wasting media and vinyl, it is recommended you replace blades after 6 months of use or whenever cutting becomes jagged or inconsistent.
• Cutting Strips will also require periodic replacement: The cutting strip is the protective strip that is found right below the carriage arm that prevents damage to the cutting blade. Over time it will develop small cuts and abrasions – and it may happen quickly if you are creating decals or other projects where the blade will cut through the liner of the media.
• Blade holders will gather small bits of material in them: Over time, this accumulated debris can prevent the blade from moving smoothly over the cut media. Occasionally removing the blade holder cap and cleaning out the debris will help prolong the life of the bladeholder, but they do wear out with time.
Replacement blades, blade holders and cutting strips for MH Cutters can be found at: http:// www.uscutter.com/Cutter-Blades-Bladeholders
Storage of Your Cutter
• During periods when the cutter is not in use, please unplug the cutter from the power source.
• Covering the cutter with a plastic sheet or other lint free cloth or water resistant material to prevent accumulation of dust is also recommended.
• Always store your cutter in a cool, dry location
