• Continuing Cutting
Cutting After Changing the Sheet

Again carry out the procedure described from "Loading the Sheet" on page 7 to "4-7 Downloading Cutting Data" on page 10.
* If a sheet of the same type is used, there is no need to perform a cutting test.

Continuing Cutting on the Same Sheet

Refer to "4-5 Setting the Origin Point" on page 8 to set the origin for the area where cutting is to be carried out next. Then
send cutting data from the computer to the PNC-900.

• Cutting a Thick Sheet

SW-8, one of the DIP switches located on the right side of the unit, is normally set to OFF (light).
It is recommended that SW-8 be set to ON (heavy) when cutting a thick or heavy sheet. Cutting speed slows down when this

is done, but the force used to move the sheet and the blade increases.

* Remember that DIP switch settings must be made only when the power is turned off.

4-8 Applying the Completed Cutout

Once cutting has been completed, the resulting work can be affixed in place as explained below.

Procedure

Notes
• Make sure beforehand that the surface where the work is to be stuck is clean and free of

all dust or oily deposits.

• When applying the work to a transparent surface, such as a window, you can use a water-

based pen (which can be wiped off afterwards) to mark guidelines on the reverse side of
the glass, to aid in getting the work aligned properly.

• If you discover after it is stuck in place that air bubbles were trapped under the work, use a

needle to puncture them. Then you can smooth out the sheet out so that it sticks securely.

Use scissors or something similar to sever the area that has
been cut from the roll sheet.

around the targeted work.
