    Why is my Logan 650-1 Cutter not cutting through the material?
    • B
      Brandi GreenJul 27, 2025
      If your Logan Cutter isn't cutting through, it might be due to several reasons. First, ensure the machine is placed on a level surface. Second, use a Slip Sheet that is at least as long as the mat you are cutting. Lastly, the blade depth might be set too shallow, so adjust the blade depth accordingly.

    Why does my Logan Cutter produce ragged bevel cuts?

      William HendricksAug 1, 2025
      Ragged bevel cuts from your Logan Cutter can occur if you're cutting without a Slip Sheet, so make sure to use one. Also, the Slip Sheet might be worn out and need replacing. Another cause could be not changing the blade frequently enough, so try changing the blade more often.

      Austin SmithAug 11, 2025
      Hooks or curves during cutting with your Logan Cutter can be caused by several factors. The blade depth might be set too deep, so adjust it. A dull blade can also cause this issue, so replace the blade. Ensure the Slip Sheet is clear of previous cuts. Finally, apply even pressure to the Cutting Head during the cut.

      If the overcut on the bottom cut is too small, align the start and stop indicator slightly below the pencil line and cut. If it's too big, align the start and stop indicator slightly above the pencil line and cut.
