THINGS TO KEEP IN MIND

• It is advisable not to press the plunger on top of the housing while loading the tool to prevent the tip from slipping out.
• To minimise wear on the tip, the housing will be raised and rotate for a few seconds at regular intervals.
• Be careful when handling already engraved materials. Small fragments of the material may have come off. You can remove them with a lint roller or a piece of adhesive tape.
• If you observe irregularities on the edges, remove them with a polishing cloth or sandpaper (360-600 grit). Test the back of the material first to ensure that it won’t be scratched by this procedure.
• Before engraving leather, smooth its surface with a dry sponge. This will soften the fibres for better results.

HOW TO CHANGE QUICKSWAP™ TIPS?

• Press and hold the plunger on top of the housing until the tip is released.
• Gently remove the tip from the tool holder.
• While pressing the plunger, align flat areas on the new tip with the housing’s flat sides.
• Slide the tip into place.
• Ensure the tip is firmly clamped.
• Release the plunger to secure the tip.
