[Guest Jtint]

Im having some difficulty adjusting my.blade and force to properly cut my window film..to NOT cut through the film, and to plot cleanly so as to weed cleanly... Any help out there..asap..

Your  issue can be a number of things causing the cutter not to cut properly.    

 

Dull blade or broken blade tip.  I have seen a plotter blade last over a year and I have seen one fail in 3 days.  I have had really good luck with the Clean Cut blades.

Cut strip.  Is there a groove in it?  Are there nicks in it?  If your unsure replace it.  

 

Cutter head.  Is the cutter head tight on the guide bar?  

 

As far as settings- I run my Graphtec cutter, when cutting tint on 35 speed and 15 to 16 pressure,  on a new blade.  The pressure will vary on the manufacturer of your film.  

 

Once the blade depth is set correctly on a blade you should never need to change it.  When the blade gets dull, up the pressure, don't change the depth.  .  

 

Good luck.
