Adjusting the Rotation

Tip
To adjust, click plus/minus on the desired field about five times. Click OK and do another test cut. Continue making adjustments until the desired outcome is achieved.

Current Bevel Type
Select the desired Cartridge Type Tab. Select the desired bevel type from the Current Bevel Type dropdown control. Select Current Bevel Type-Front of Mat if it is being cut from the front of the mat.

If the Non-Oval Outside cuts with a Swoop, Increase the Rotation.

If the Non-Oval Outside cuts with a Flare, Decrease the Rotation.

A Twisted Corner is when the blade turns before retracting from the matboard, which tears the matboard and twists the corner.
This is especially visible from the back of the mat.

Check to make sure the Rotation hasn't been set to a high number.
Twisted corners can also be a symptom of oil/water in the Air Valve, or an issue with the Head.
Check the Air Regulator for excess water.
Use the Clean the Foot Block procedure for cleaning the foot block.
