Dial
The Smart Set™ dial is a material selection dial that oers pre-defined settings to get the best results
on paper, vinyl, iron-on, cardstock, fabric, poster board and more. The Smart Set™ dial eliminates the
need to make manual pressure, depth and speed adjustments. Additional materials can be found
under the Custom setting.
Tip: The Smart Set
™
dial has been calibrated to work best with Cricut
®
branded products. If settings
either don’t cut all the way through the material or the blade is cutting too deeply into your mat, use the
half settings located between the material markings on the dial which will increase or decrease
the pressure.

**For an optimal cutting experience, we recommend using the Deep Cut Blade when cutting thicker materials such
as heavy fabric, poster board, chipboard, magnet board, and leather. The Cricut Deep Cut Blade can cut most
materials up to 1mm in thickness using the multi-cut feature.
