C. Helpful Hints
1. Always store your Intermediate+ Mat Cutter flat. Never stand the Mat Cutter up
against a wall for any period of time. This can cause the Mat Cutter base to bow.
Always use your Intermediate+ on a solid flat surface.
2. If you need to clean the Guide Rail, only use an evaporating solvent (lighter fluid,
alcohol) that will leave no residue. Do not lubricate the Guide Rail as the substance
will soften the Nylon Guides causing them to bind on the Guide Rail.
3. The Bevel Cutting head has a "spring back" action that happens when no blade is
installed. This spring action is not intended to pull the blade up out of the mat after
a cut. It is a safety device to prevent the blade from dropping down into the blade
slot and cutting into a table, your hand, etc. when not in use. The tightness of the
blade slot is designed to squeeze the blade tip which prevents flexing giving a bet-
ter finished cut.
4. When cutting a border less than 1
Guide Rail to properly seat down on the mat board. Not adding this step causes the
Guide Rail to hang up on the Black Knobs of the Mat Guide.
5. A NOTE ON BLADE LIFE:
No two blades may last the same. It is a good idea to install a new blade before
starting a new project to insure best cutting results.
Note: Use only authentic Logan blades
