Blade Depth Dial Calibration: CMC 8000 and 8500 Series

The suggested Blade Depth setting for 1.5 mm (4-ply) mat is 10.

If the Blade Depth Dial suddenly cannot turn down to 0 (zero) or lower, then the Blade Depth Dial will need to be re-Calibrated.

• Create a one layer 3x3 square opening and go to the Cut Preview Screen.

• Turn the Blade Depth Adjustment Knob to “1”.

• Cut the mat.

• If you see a faint score on all corners (about 30-70% scoring) of the 3x3 square, your calibration is complete.

• If scoring on the mat is not present; turn the Dial in increments of one and repeat score test until scoring is present.

• If the score is too deep reverse the process.
