If your Cricut machine is not cutting all the way through your material, or is only scoring the material, choose a machine below for specific troubleshooting tips. Fortunately this issue can usually be resolved with basic troubleshooting.
Remove the blade housing, then remove the blade and ensure that there are not any bits of paper stuck to the blade or lodged inside the blade housing. Ensure that you replace the blade housing correctly into the machine. Once clean, test your cuts again. If the blade and housing are already free from debris, or cleaning it did not help, proceed to 3.
Try an arm buoyancy test: gently press down on the black arms that surround the blade housing and then release them. Do they bounce right back up, or do they stick or rub in any way? If they stick or rub, please contact Customer Care through one of the options below for further assistance. If they bounce right back up when released, proceed to 4.
Increase the machine pressure settings and try your cuts again. If this does not change the cut result, proceed to 5.
Increase blade depth by turning the dial at the top of the blade housing. If this does not change the cut result, proceed to 6.
Perform a Hard Reset on the machine. If this does not help, proceed to 7.
If the machine is still not cutting through materials, or is only scoring the paper, please contact Customer Care through one of the options below for further assistance.
Retry your cuts with a new blade housing. If the issue persists, proceed to 8.
Attempt a Format and Restore on the machine through Cricut Sync. Please note that this step should only be taken if all other steps have failed to resolve the issue.
If this does not resolve the issue, please contact Customer Care through one of the options below for assistance.
Adjust/increase the Multi-Cut setting in the Cricut Craft Room cut preview screen and retry your cuts. If this does not change the cut result, proceed to 6.
If the machine is still only scoring or not cutting through the material, please contact Customer Care through one of the options below for assistance.
I would make sure your blade depth is just above the material.And make sure you have the proper blade for the material it seems the more teeth per inch help but also if it` s carbide or diamond tipped.
Generally removing the two screws.. on the blade foot (don't do this over the sink unless the drain is closed!).. and taking the blade apart.. cleaning the trimmers with a small brush.. apply grease in the blade groove.. reassemble
Usually it's best to put those two screws back just get them in lose.. not quite snug..set the blade upside down on a flat surface..so it pushes the blade back away from the cutting end..level..then tighten those screws while you are pushing or holding down on the clippers cutting edge against the flat surface/table. ... oil the blade with the proper oil or a light mineral oil.
This usually will get them back to cutting properly..the blade should be oiled prior to each use...about two to three drops right along the visible part..or a light spray also hair should be clean.. dirty hair does not cut well at all..and the clippers will tug and pull rather than cut cleanly.
Lastly..if they see a lot of use. might be blade replacement time..
Check your blade latch is working properly. If you took your clipper apart and your blades are not cutting it is one of 2 things. Your blade drive is not assembled properly or your blade latch is not holding the blade on the clipper.
If you took your blade apart, check the blade alignment. The cutter blade needs to be slightly behind the comb blade.
if you put oil on the blades does it help if you remove the blade you should see the pivot what make the blades moves hair preventthe blades from moving freely after if it still weak motor is weak not mush to do with that pricewise better by andnother one cheers
