Maintenance Schedule
Do not spray anything directly on the CMC; spray onto a cloth and then wipe.
Daily:
1. With compressed air or soft brush, clean lower rail, horizontal/vertical clamps and head of any matboard
debris.
2. Check backing mat for excessive wear, and change if necessary.
3. Check blade depth and blade installation.
4. Properly shut down computer and ECU at night.
Weekly:
1. Clean CMC rails with a soft cloth and general purpose cleaner, especially the lower rail where wheels have
the most contact with the machine.
2. Ooad the Air Regulator. See “Ooad Air Regulator” page 28 for instructions.
Monthly:
1. Clean and drain the air compressor to ensure that the air line is free of moisture and oil. Moisture is very
detrimental to hardware and can cause a variety of problems. Check your air compressor documentation for
instructions.
2. Wipe down footblock on head with a soft cloth and mild cleaner.
3. Remove and clean blade cartridges with adhesive release.
4. Check the blade cartridges for wear and tear. There should not be excessive side-to-side movement of the
blade within the cartridge.
5. Make sure that the CMC is still secure in the brackets/stand to avoid any tip-over hazard.
6. Readjust the head wheels after 250-500 mats. See the Head Wheel Adjustment on the Knowledge Base
at https://wizardcutters.atlassian.net/wiki/x/YYDHFw for instructions.
Offload Air Regulator
One of the purposes of the air regulator is to collect moisture that may be trapped
within the air line. The air regulator is self releasing when the air compressor is turned
o.
Check the air regulator at least once a week for any buildup of moisture or oil. If there
is any oil visible in the air regulator, the air compressor needs to be cleaned and
drained to remove the oil in the air line. Refer to the compressor’s documentation for
instructions.
The dial on the air regular should read 60psi when the air source is on and at full
pressure. If it does not read 60psi on the gauge, call technical support.

documentation is not supported and potentially harmful to the operator.
Caution: The CMC should not be operated when operator is fatigued, under the inuence of alcohol or
