CHECKING CUTTING CONDITIONS [TEST CUT]
Whenever you have changed cutting conditions or the tool(s) to be used, execute the “test cut” function to check the
following items. Refer to “Checking the status of tools” ( P. 2-31)
(1) Whether or not the cutting (plotting) conditions are proper
Whether or not a work is properly cut or the finished plot has thin spots.

If the tool is off-center, inaccuracy in cutting will result.
(3) Whether or not the tools are matched to each other
If the plot is cut with a tangential cutter, check whether or not the cut pattern exactly matches the plot.
For the above-stated case (1), re-establish the cutting conditions.
