How to clean machine
Cricut Venture requires routine cleaning. Heavy use
may result in unwanted debris gathering around
Rail (14) and Drive Rollers (8). If you notice debris, or
whenever Design Space prompts you to do so, use
included cleaning tools with isopropyl alcohol (70% or
higher) to complete the cleaning process.
DO NOT USE acetone-based solutions
or other cleaning products as they may
damage machine.
For more info and recommended cleaning details,
see help.cricut.com/venture/cleaning
Always handle with care
CAUTION: Keep fingers, hair, jewelry, loose
clothing, other body parts, and other items that
could get caught in Carriage (16), Drive Rollers (8),
and other moving parts away from the machine while
it is operating.
CAUTION: During operation, Drive Rollers
(8) move at high speeds. Do not touch during
machine operation.
CAUTION: If Mat Support Arms (7) are
extended, avoid putting downward pressure
on the support arms to avoid the potential to roll
the machine or break the support arms. Retract the
support arms when not in use.
Always use machine on sturdy, non-slick surface.
