What to do if the Brother SDX325 mat cannot be inserted?
If you're having trouble inserting the mat into your Brother Cutter, make sure it's placed under the feed rollers on both sides of the feed slot. Lightly insert the mat and then press the “Feed” button. You may also need to adjust the position of the feed roller or lock the shaft.
Why is the Brother Cutter mat fed in at an angle?
If the mat is feeding into your Brother Cutter at an angle, it might be because it was inserted into the feed slot at an angle, the corners of the mat are bent, or the rear tray isn't pulled out. It could also be due to the feed roller not being positioned correctly. Try re-inserting the mat straight after pressing the “Feed” button, replacing the mat if the corners are deformed, pulling out the rear tray, or adjusting the feed roller's position.
What to do if the Brother Cutter mat or the material catches on a feed roller during cutting/drawing/scanning?
If the mat or material catches on a feed roller during cutting, drawing, or scanning with your Brother Cutter, it's likely due to decreased mat adhesive strength or unsecured material. Press the “Pause/Stop” button, follow the screen instructions, and press the “Feed” button to feed out the mat. If it doesn't feed out, turn off the machine, remove the holder, and manually feed out the mat. Then, replace the mat or secure the material within the adhesive area. Remember to pull out the rear tray before re-inserting the mat.

Why is not all of the material to be cut cut by Brother SDX325?
There might be several reasons why your Brother Cutter isn't cutting all the way through the material. It could be due to using an inappropriate blade, a chipped blade, decreased mat adhesive, a worn blade, or incompatible material. Other causes include incorrect cutting pressure, dust in the holder, small spacing between patterns, material extending from the mat's adhesive area, cutting fabric without a sheet, or fabric not firmly attached to the sheet or mat. You can try the following: * Use a blade appropriate for the material. * Replace the blade. * Replace the mat. * Replace the material with a compatible one. * Adjust the “Cut Pressure” setting. * Clean the holder. * Rearrange the patterns to slightly separate them. * Attach the material or tape while keeping it with...
Why is the Brother SDX325 Cutter scanning not done cleanly?

Why are unwanted images scanned by Brother SDX325?

What to do if the Brother SDX325 Cutter mat cannot be fed?
