BannerJohn 1,324 Posted October 9, 2009 the kill switch is the red button ..if the carriage is pressing against it, move it away by hand. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gopal5150 0 Posted October 9, 2009 red button is located where? i dont have my plotter with me at home, but could it be the on and off switch? there is nothing touching that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MZ SKEETER 4,708 Posted October 9, 2009 it is at the end of the cutter, where the carriage travels back and forth on the track, left and right , Carriage holds your blade holder. If the carriage goes against the red button it kills it. kill switch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kayshabean 0 Posted October 9, 2009 hola, what kind/brand of cutter do you have? i found the cave man methoed worked out wonderfull... just start pushing buttons.. then things start moving... alto it kinda freaked me out at first with its strange noise... (i thought i broke it) didnt it yours come with a little booklet? they tend to have a step by step go at things... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
