3. Laser Positioning System Setup:
   • Locate the battery compartment, usually on the side or back of the laser module.
   • Install 2 AAA batteries (included) into the compartment, ensuring correct polarity.
   • Press the red switch to activate the laser line.

Step 3 details how to adjust the angle and focus position of the laser line using a hexagonal key. Tips for using white paper during adjustment are also provided.

4. Calibration Check: The unit is factory-calibrated. If you notice any misalignment of the laser line due to transport, please refer to the Troubleshooting section for recalibration instructions.

5. Operating Instructions

Follow these steps for precise and efficient cutting:

1. Prepare Material: Place the paper, photo, or cardboard on the graduated metal panel. Ensure the material is flat and aligned against the guides for accurate measurement.
2. Activate Laser (Optional): Press the red switch to project the laser line onto your material. This infrared-assisted positioning helps reduce cutting line deviation.
3. Position Material: Align the material with the desired cutting line using the laser guide and the graduated markings on the panel. The panel supports multi-angle cutting.
4. Secure Material: Hold the material firmly in place with one hand, ensuring it does not shift during the cut.
5. Engage Safety Guard: Ensure the folding safety guard is properly positioned over the material, covering the blade area.
6. Cut: With your other hand, firmly grasp the ergonomic handle. Apply steady downward pressure and smoothly pull the blade down to cut through the material. The force-saving lever structure reduces effort.
7. Release: Once the cut is complete, smoothly lift the blade back to its resting position.
8. Capacity: Do not exceed 10 sheets of 80g paper or an equivalent thickness for other materials. It is recommended to adjust the cutting thickness based on the material's hardness to avoid overloading the blade.

6. Maintenance

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and performance of your paper cutter:

• Blade Care: The carbon steel blade is designed for durability. Keep it clean and free of adhesive residue or paper fibers. Do not attempt to sharpen the blade yourself, as this may damage it.
• Cleaning: Wipe the graduated metal panel and other surfaces with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn marks, use a slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents, which can damage the finish.
• Laser Batteries: Replace the 2 AAA batteries when the laser light dims or stops working. Ensure correct polarity when inserting new batteries.
• Storage: Store the paper cutter in a clean, dry place. Always ensure the blade is locked and the safety guard is in place to prevent accidents.

7. Troubleshooting

Here are solutions to common issues you might encounter:

• Laser Misalignment: If the laser line appears misaligned after transport or prolonged use, you can recalibrate it:
  1. Retrieve the hexagonal key, typically stored at the back of the cutter.
  2. To adjust the angle of the line, gently turn the hexagonal key clockwise or counter-clockwise as needed.
  3. To adjust the focus position of the line, simply move the hexagonal key left or right without rotating it.

  Tip: During adjustment, place a white sheet of paper on the cutting surface to improve the visibility of the red line position. After adjustment, perform a test cut to verify accuracy.

  Note: Infrared rays may show thickness differences due to the principle of optical propagation; this is a normal physical phenomenon and does not affect precision.

• Blade Overload / Uneven Cuts: If the blade struggles to cut, produces rough edges, or results in uneven cuts:
  • Reduce the number of sheets being cut. Ensure you are not exceeding the 10-sheet capacity for 80g paper.
  • Adjust the cutting thickness based on the material's hardness. Thicker or denser materials require fewer sheets per cut.
  • Ensure the material is properly aligned and held firmly against the guides.
  • Check for any debris under the material or on the cutting surface that might interfere with the cut.
• Laser Not Working:
  • Check if the AAA batteries are correctly installed with the right polarity.
  • Replace the AAA batteries if they are depleted.
  • Ensure the red laser switch is pressed firmly.
