The sides of the machine fold up and the handle can be removed, making on-the-go crafting and storage a cinch.
How to use the machine:

Run your die through the machine by turning the handle.
Use your Tool ‘N One (sold separately) to brush off excess paper and the spatula attachment to remove the paper from the die.

Add your die cut or paper of choice to the top of the Cutting Plate.
Place the embossing mat on the top of your die cut or paper.
Add embossing plate.

How to care for your machine:
Clean the machine and its accessories with a slightly damp cloth only. Do not use a cleaning product or chemical cleaners on the machine. Canned air may be used to remove dust and debris from small areas of the machine. If your handle requires lubrication, place a small drop of household dish detergent between the white and bronze parts of the handle and rotate the handle to distribute. Alternately, you can remove and immerse the handle into clean water with dish detergent. To prolong the life of the plates, use both sides and remove any scrap materials after cutting.
Tips:
Do NOT use WD-40 to lubricate handle.
Use the Tool N' One (sold separately) to keep your machine and dies clean and tidy and to pick up stubborn paper scraps from the die-cutting process.
If the result of a die-cut is an incomplete cut, add a shim (piece of paper at least as large as your die templates) between the bottom Cutting Plate and your die template to increase the pressure while die cutting.
