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 the
support sheet is becoming weak after
repeated uses.
-
The support sheet tends to be strongly
attached to a certain type 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.
• When attaching fabric with an iron-on sheet
attached or paper to the mat, cleanly peel off
the support sheet from the mat, or attach the
material to a different standard mat without a
support sheet attached.
• 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.
Notice on Use of High Tack Adhesive
Fabric Support Sheet
• When the sheet's adhesive strength decreases
or fabric becomes twisted while being cut,
replace the sheet with a new one.
• When peeling the sheet off the mat or replacing
the sheet, use the spatula to carefully remove
the old sheet.
• Store the mat in between uses with the
protective sheet affixed to the support sheet.
• If a mat with a support sheet attached is not to
be used for a certain length of time, peel the
support sheet off the mat and affix the
protective sheet on the adhesive side of the mat
before storing it.
• Do not reuse a support sheet that has been
attached to the mat.
• Store the support sheet at room temperature
and in a location not exposed to high
temperatures, high humidity or direct sunlight.
• Do not bend the support sheet to store it.
• We recommend attaching it to a new cutting
mat.
