e From its edges, attach the material to the
adhesive side of the mat so that there are no
wrinkles in the material.
Be sure to first iron the fabric to remove any wrinkles.
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.
• Insert the mat into the machine in the direction
of the arrow. Pay attention to the mat’s
orientation to avoid inserting the mat in the
wrong direction.
Memo
• Be sure that the vertical grain of the attached
fabric runs straight up and down. The built-in
patterns are automatically arranged suitable for
fabric with vertical grain.
• When drawing a seam allowance, attach the
fabric to the mat with its wrong side facing up.
f Firmly move the spatula handle across the
surface of the fabric to remove any wrinkles
and firmly attach the fabric to the mat.

Peeling Off the Material (Fabric for Quilt
Piecing)
After cutting the material, use a spatula to slowly
peel off just the fabric. Try not to peel off the
support sheet.

Note
• The support sheet may be unintentionally
peeled off while you are removing the fabric
from the mat under the following conditions:
- The adhesive between the mat and support
sheet is becoming weak after repeated uses.
- The support sheet tends to be strongly
attached to a certain types of fabrics.
• In this case, use the included spatula to hold
the support sheet on the mat and remove the
fabric using your hand.
• After cutting, carefully remove any fibers
remaining on the support sheet.
• Do not leave material attached to a mat with a
support sheet attached for a long period of
time; otherwise, the adhesive will permeate the
material.
• When peeling off the material, insert the spatula
as level as possible into the space between the
material and mat. Strongly rubbing the adhesive
side of the mat may damage it.
