  • summa not cutting small decals

    Posted by andy rollins on July 21, 2011 at 9:41 am

    I have been trying to cut a small decal for my motorcycle with my summa S140 T series and the cutter just messes the decal up while cutting.
    I have used the slowest speed possible but its as if the cut head isn’t set proper.
    Can anyone help me out with some questions I have via telephone or here?
    also were can I learn to use this equipment to its full potental as I know next to bothing on how to use it 🙁

    are you using original blades or aftermarket such as mathias smart knife? they have different offsets so need to be set.

    what is the actual problem and how small are we talking?

    pressure too high? blade messy? clean cut or not?

    maybe if poss attach a pic showing what’s gone wrong.
