 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

should not be used by children without supervision.

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.

offline 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
V+ / V- BUTTONS 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.

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 differ in the amount of force needed so
F+ / F- BUTTONS 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.

 OFFLINE/PAUSE SCREEN

Offline mode is used to reposition the cutting material and blade so that a new starting position can be set
for the next design. Offline mode can also be accessed while the cutter is in operation and will pause the
current cutting process. Although changes can be made to the material and blade positions if Offline/Pause mode is
accessed during cutting, making changes to either setting is not normally recommended.

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.

425.481.3555 18 www.uscutter.com
 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.

Place the roll on top of the stand rollers.

For heat press vinyl, please flip the roll.

Release the pinch rollers release levers.

425.481.3555 19 www.uscutter.com
 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.

425.481.3555 20 www.uscutter.com
 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.

Engage the Pinch Rollers by pushing down

on the Pinch Roller Release Levers.

If the cutter is not already on, turn it on now.

425.481.3555 21 www.uscutter.com
If you would like to change the position of where the cut will be made:

1 Press the OFFLINE/PAUSE button to enter offline mode.

Adjust the vinyl to where you want to make your cut to start by
2 using the Up and Down arrow keys on the control panel.

Now, adjust the blade to where you want your cut to start by using
3 the Left and Right arrow keys.

425.481.3555 22 www.uscutter.com
 Now press the Origin button to tell the cutter that this is the
4 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.

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
