Training is required before use.
Staff members should replace the blade whenever needed.
If settings are changed to meet cutting needs, the tool should be returned to a book-box board cutting default setting when finished to minimize student interaction with the cutter.
Students will not be permitted to cut board or paper that exceeds the dimensions of the cutter. They may mark measurements, but staff will need to cut using a hand tool.
To complete training, staff must read the Rules for Use of the Mat Cutter (above) and either read the instruction manual or watch the linked video.

To review segments of the training:
Students must read the Rules for Use of the Mat Cutter (above), pass the mat cutter components quiz, read the instructions for straight cutting board, and watch the video demonstrating straight cutting board to complete training.
When training is completed, students may sign the approval form.
Caution: Be careful to control the cutting head as it breaks through the end of the board, as it will tend to "jump" towards you.
