The blade depth is adjusted by turning the tip of the cutter pen.
Align the number with the red line to adjust the blade depth.
Aligning a larger number to the line will
increase the blade depth. The blade depth is
changed in approximately 0.1 mm for each
number. The blade depth is able to adjust to a
maximum of approximately 1 mm.
CAUTION Be careful when handling the cutter blade to avoid cutting
your hands, etc.
CAUTION Do not turn the cap clockwise (towards 10) from the state
where the blade tip is not protruding (at 0). Similarly, do
not turn the cap further counter-clockwise (towards 0)
past the state where the blade tip is protruding by 1 mm
(at 10). Doing either of these may damage the cutter pen.
