Die
Using Ellison®SureCut™or ClearCrop™Dies
Ellison SureCut and ClearCrop Dies can be used in the Sizzix Big Shot Pro Machine
without the Adapter Pad, as they are thicker than Sizzix Bigz Dies. Place SureCut
and ClearCrop dies directly on the metal Sliding Tray, rubber side facing up. Place
material to be cut against the rubber side of the die, then place one Cutting Pad on
top of the material (Figure I). For Ellison SureCut Crease-Rule Dies, place Premium
Crease Pad, instead of the Cutting Pad, on top of material to be cut. Follow Steps
3–5 in Operating Instructions, page 6.

6. Maintenance
Recognizing Worn Plastic Slides
After extended use, the Plastic Slides on the Side Rails may show signs of wear.
All four Plastic Slides should be replaced at the same time to ensure even wear in
the future.
Figure K Figure L
• Ifdiedoesnotcompletelycutthrough
material, add a Mylar Shim directly
below die (see Figure J) to increase
cutting pressure on material. Two Mylar
Shims are provided with the Machine.
Add one Shim to the sandwich first,
and if die still does not cut through
material, use another Shim.

Replacing Plastic Slides
• RemovethewornPlasticSlidewithathinputtyknifeorartist'sspatula.Gently
pry the Slide away from the Side Rail, popping the Slide out of the three holes
in the Side Rail.
• Use a damp cloth moistened with rubbing alcohol to wipe the rails where the
new Slides will be inserted (Figure K). The surface beneath the Slide must be
completely free of debris or residue that would prevent the Slide from lying flat
on the Side Rail.
• Remove adhesive paper backing from Slide. Line up the three pegs on the Slide
with the three holes in the Side Rail and gently press the pegs into the holes
(Figure L). Once the pegs are nearly all the way into position in the holes, press
down and in on the flat upper surface of the Plastic Slide. The Slide should snap
into its final position. Follow the same steps for each of the remaining Plastic Slides.

12
1. When cutting multiple sheets of material, the cutting is incomplete.
It may be necessary to use fewer sheets of material with intricate shapes. Add
a Mylar Shim directly below die (see Figure J) to increase cutting pressure on
material. Two Mylar Shims are provided with the Machine. Add one Shim to the
sandwich first, and if die still does not cut through material, use another Shim.
2. The Sliding Tray appears warped or does not slide smoothly.
Sliding Tray (part #656254) may need to be replaced. Contact Sizzix
Customer Relations for ordering information.
3. When rolling the “sandwich” through the machine, only the top Cutting or
Crease Pad moves.
Slide the sandwich toward the back of the tray with the first inch of the top
Cutting or Crease Pad overhanging the sandwich, on the side closest the rollers.
Turn the handle, allowing the Cutting or Crease Pad to pass through the rollers
first, acting as a wedge so the rest of the sandwich can pass through.
4. When using Crease-Rule dies, the crease rule cuts through the material
rather than creasing the material.
Use of Premium Crease Pad is required with Crease-Rule Dies. For easier cutting,
place the die and material to be cut on the Sliding Tray diagonally (as die size
allows) and then turn the Crank Handle to move the die through the rollers.
5. Rubber does not eject all parts of the cut material.
Use the Die Pick to remove excess material after each use.
7. Troubleshooting Solutions
Keeping Dies Clean
It is important to use the Die Pick (included with the Big Shot Pro) to clean out the
bitsofpaperandothermaterialsthatbuildupinthejointsofthedies(wherethe
cutting rule meets). If dies are not kept clean, the scraps will eventually push the
rule slightly apart.
Cleaning Your Machine
Over time and due to normal use, the machine will become dirty or dusty. This will
happen primarily in the Storage Well underneath the Sliding Tray. To clean, use only
isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol) poured onto a clean paper towel and rub over
Storage Well until it evaporates. With another clean dry paper towel, wipe off any
residue.NEVERusebleachorabrasivecleanersonthemachine.ThemachineDOES
NOTneedtobeoiledorlubricated.

13
As a general rule, the Big Shot Pro Machine will cut anything that scissors will cut.
The number of pieces of material that it will cut depends on the thickness of the
material to be cut and the size and complexity of the die design.
• Whencuttingfelt,polyfoamordelicatematerials,placeascrapofpaperover
