Note
• Place the material within the attaching area
(grid area) on the adhesive side. If the material
extends from the attaching area, it may be
damaged by the feed rollers when the mat is
fed.
Memo
• The mat does not have a top and bottom. It can
be inserted into the feed slot from either end.
d Firmly attach all of the material to the mat so
that there are no wrinkles and no part can curl
off.
• Otherwise, curls in the material may become
caught when the mat is inserted.
Note
• If the mat is dirty, clean it. For details, see
“Cleaning the Mat” on page 58.
Peeling Off the Material (Lightweight Paper)
Follow the steps in adjusting the blade extension
(page 18), installing the blade holder (page 19)
and trial cutting (page 19) to set up your machine.
After cutting the material, use a spatula to slowly
peel off the paper.

blue backing)
Attaching the Material (Lightweight Fabric for
Quilt Piecing)
Use the specially designed adhesive sheet to
attach lightweight fabrics for quilt piecing to the
standard mat. The high-tack adhesive fabric
support sheet is perfect for quilt piecing since it
will not leave adhesive on the surface of fabric.
Support sheets can be repeatedly used unless they
are peeled off the mat. They should only be used
with patterns that have a seam allowance. When
cutting patterns without a seam allowance, use
the iron-on fabric appliqué contact sheet.
