GENERAL USER INSTRUCTIONS

• Read all the instructions before starting.

• Always make sure you keep the tool out of reach and away from children. Tips are very hot and can easily burn the skin.

• Keep work area clean and well-lit. Working with sufficient quantity and quality of light is essential to reach a good result.
  Draw the design on the foam or cut a pattern, pin it to the foam and make a rough trace of the pattern then remove it.

• Choose the tip and insert into the handle, make sure the position is secured. You can rotate the handle to fix it in a comfortable position and start to cut.

• Do not forget to turn the unit off whenever you leave it to avoid a fire hazard, also, it will prolong the life of the tool and it will serve you longer.

• Never set the tool down while it is turned on. Open the heat-safe metal stand and tape to your workplace, which must be flat, stable and heat resistant surface. The tool should always rest on the stand.

• Do not touch the tip of the tool, even if you’ve just switched it on, as the tips are very hot.

• Make sure the tip has been installed correctly. Be careful not to use excessive force while fixing the tips to avoid damaging the tool.

• Turn the tool off when changing the tip.

• Cutting wire is the only user-serviceable part. Use only our replacement wire included in the package or use dia. 0.19mm resistance wire, as installing a wrong kind of cutting wire can destroy the safety transformer or lead to an increased fire risk and further consequential damages.

• During the working process, make sure you are in a comfortable and relaxed position to avoid pains in arms, head, neck and back. If you begin to feel stress in the back of your neck, change your sitting position, or adjust the height of your seat.

• To clean the tool avoid all the methods that are not listed in the section how to care and clean the tool.

• Use a test piece of foam to check the heat and to practice different tips.

Tips and Their Uses

• Hot Wire Tip – Heats up in 5 seconds up to 330°C-450°C. The tip is designed to cut straight lines and curves and to sculpt the edges of large pieces. You can reach perfect smooth and even cutting with hot wire.
• Long Hot-knife Tip – Heats up in 45 seconds up to 400°C-500°C. This tip is perfect for creating more detailed design cutting.
• Engraving Tip – Heats up in 90 seconds up to 350°C-450°C. The engraving tip can be used to create patterns and designs in the foam surface. It engraves to a specified depth you want to reach. You can reach the ideal depth of engraving by controlling applied pressure.

HOW TO CARE AND CLEAN TIPS

• Keeping your foam-cutting tool clean is mandatory if you want to reach a good result and make the process of cutting easier. Here are the most effective ways to clean the tips:
• Clean hot wire by just gently wiping it against a cloth or paper towel while the foam is in a melted state. It’s the only recommended way to clean the wire. If it starts not to cut as good as it used to, it means that you need to change the wire.
• You can clean the tips with acetone, but do it when the tips are cold.
• Sandpaper – it can be used to remove remains of melted foam from the hot-knife and engraving tips. This method is pretty easy and can be done frequently. We recommend using 320 grit paper to avoid damaging the tips.
• Steel wool – an easy way to clean the tips of your kit without any difficulties.
• Knife Method – another simple method to clean the tips and remove the remains of the foam buildup is using a knife.
• Jeweler’s Rouge – this is not as quick and easy as the other methods, but it’s safer and really effective for tips.
• Polishing Burr – it is one of the best ways to reach a deep clean result. But in this case, you need to be extremely careful in order not to overpolish the tips as this may cause thinning over time.
