→Set up: Machine with vinyl
#Place the spool's guidewheels in the guidetracks behind the machine. You may need to reposition them if the previous spool was a different width; do this gently.
#Pull the end of the vinyl into the vinyl cutter, just past the long white stripe. Adjust the three pinch rollers as necessary to accommodate the vinyl size and then activate the locking lever to lock the vinyl on place.
#Size your material with the edge (down arrow) or single (right arrow) buttons.
==Set up: CAM software==
#Enter the `Cut Output` dialogue. (Icon that is shaped as a machine on the left sidebar or shortcut `S`)
#Select the appropriate settings.
#Read in your material size.
#'''''Always preview the cuts before commanding the machine to cut them.''''' Check the design to be cut to verify its position, orientation, and check for accurate pathing. Note that the front of the machine is rendered as the left-hand side of the preview, i.e. the material will spool out from left to right in the preview, rather than from top to bottom.
