The pressure setting actually says Press on the cutter display. Set it to 120 or higher, and adjust the blade accordingly. Do not lower the pressure below 120. Make sure the blade is barely sticking out of the blade holder.

Is there a reason why the pressure is set so high? I started out with a pressure of 60, and now am up to about 75-80 with Oracal 651. I haven't found a need to increase blade pressure since everything cuts well.
