Memo
• The side cutter can cut as much as one layer of 13-
oz. denim.
• After using the side cutter, clean it by removing any
lint or dust.
• If the side cutter can no longer cut fabric, use a
piece of cloth to apply a small amount of oil to the
cutting edge of the cutter.
Memo
• When the size of cylindrical pieces is too small to
slide onto the arm or the length is too short, the
fabric will not feed and desired results may not be
achieved.
