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.
Memo
• The mat does not have a top and bottom. It can
be inserted into the feed slot from either end.
• 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.
g Firmly attach all of the material to the mat so
that there are no wrinkles and no part can curl
off.
• Otherwise, curls in the material may become
caught when the mat is inserted.
Peeling Off the Material (Lightweight Fabric for
Any Use Other Than Quilt Piecing)
Follow the steps in adjusting the blade extension
(page 18), installing the blade holder (page 19)
and trial cutting (page 19) to set up your machine.
After cutting the material, use a spatula to peel off
the fabric together with the attached contact
sheet.

Note
• Do not place anything heated on the fabric
attached with a contact sheet. Adhesive will
permeate any other pieces of fabric around.
Attaching Fabrics With the Double-Sided
Adhesive
Place a cutout on a base fabric and apply pressure
on the top of the cutout using an iron. (The
contact sheet may not adhere well to some
fabrics.) Hand or machine stitch to ensure that the
cutout stays in place.

Note
• Do not wash fabrics attached together with a
double-sided adhesive contact sheet.
• When attaching fabrics with the double-sided
adhesive, iron carefully, being sure that the
material and adhesive surfaces are properly
heat-set.
• When attaching fabrics of different weights with
the double-sided adhesive, first iron the lighter-
weight fabric to affix the contact sheet.
Notice on Use of Contact Sheet
• Store the contact sheet at room temperature
and in a location not exposed to high
temperatures, high humidity or direct sunlight.
