PRECAUTIONS IN USE
For safety concern, please always hold the cutter firmly from the bottom
when moving it. Do not move the cutter by clasping the depression area on
both sides.
Do not shake or drop the blade holder, a blade tip maybe fly out.
During operation, keep away from any moving parts of the cutter (such as
the carriage, drums). Also be careful that your clothing and hairs do not be
caught.
Always connect the power cable to a grounded outlet.
Always use the accessory power cable that is provided. Do not wire the
power cable so that it becomes bent or caught between objects.
Do not connect the power cable to branching outlet to which other
machines are also connected, or use an extension cable. There is danger
of overheating and of misoperation of the machine.
Keep the tools away from children where they can reach.
Always put the pinch rollers within position of the white marks.
Thanks for your purchase of GCC Puma III Cutting Plotter. For your
safety and to optimize the performance of the Puma III, please read
the user manual completely and keep it in a correct location.
