Welcome
Congratulations on your purchase of the new S CLASS™ cutter!
The S CLASS™ cutters are made for sign-makers who demand the very best in cut quality.
Four versatile modes let you switch between Cutting, Cutting in FlexCut, Plotting or
Pouncing. So even if your workspace is limited, your output options aren't.
Unrivalled tracking delivers guaranteed accuracy on cuts up to 12 meters (40 feet) long. So
you won't have to monitor your cuts, even when you're sending the long jobs through.
The S CLASS™ T cutters with genuine tangential operation, and not simply "tangential
emulation," handle a wider range of materials and cut with unparalleled precision.
In short, the S CLASS™ cutters take cutting signs to a new level.
This manual is a reference guide for installing and operating the S CLASS™ cutter models.

1.1 Unpacking the Cutter
NOTE: Save the shipping box and any other packaging items in case the cutter needs to be
shipped. Do not ship the cutter without first completely repacking it in its original
packaging.
Before unpacking the cutter, make sure that there is enough space to assemble the stand
and to set the cutter aside to insert the stand screws.
CAUTION: For safety reasons, no fewer than two people should be involved in unpacking
the cutter.
1.1.1 Removing the packaging from the cutter
1. Remove the straps and the staples and open the lid of the box.
2. The cutter is packed in foil and sits in front of the box. Behind the cutter is the box
containing the stand. The accessories are located at the bottom in a separate box.
Check first whether everything is present.
3. Do not throw away the packaging. Shipping it without the original box voids any
warranty.

data cable. If you plan to use these cable guides, then put the cables in place before
mounting the cutter on the stand.
1.1.3 Mounting the cutter on the stand
1. Carefully take the cutter out of the box and lay it on its back (first spread out the
cardboard of the stand box, and then rest the cutter on that cardboard). Then insert left
and right two screws and turn them 3 turns in. Do not put a screw in at the front.

1.2 S CLASS™ Cutter Components
1.2.1 The Cutter as viewed from the front
FIG 1-10
1-10 S CLASS™ CUTTER, FRONT VIEW
1. Pinch rollers: The pinch rollers clamp the media to the drive system to ensure accurate
tracking. The S120(T) has one and the S160(T) and S 140(T) have two extra pinch rollers
to ensure that wide media stays flat in the middle. The outer drive pinch rollers have a
selectable pressure; the extra rollers in the middle can be enabled or disabled.
2. Touch panel: All cutter activity can be initiated from the 320x240 dot touch panel. The
panel displays information about the cutter’s current status and/or actions that need to
be taken.
3. Pinch roller lever: This lever is used to raise and lower the pinch rollers for media
loading.
4. Media drive sleeves: The media drive sleeves move the media only when the pinch
rollers are in the “down” position. The following table lists the number of sleeves
installed on each model of the S CLASS™ cutters.
Number of sleeves S75 (T) S120 (T) S140 (T) S160 (T)
Short sleeve 4 7 8 9
Long sleeve 1 1 1 1

5. Tool carriage: The tool carriage is the mount for the knife holder, pen or pouncing tool.
It has also holds the Optical POSitioning sensor (OPOS) and a cut-off knife to cut a sheet
from the roll when a job is finished.
6. Cutting strip: A self-healing orange strip helps avoid any damage to the knife tip when
no media has been loaded. Since cutting is done on the cutting strip, it is essential that
the strip remains intact.
7. Pouncing strip: An extra black strip to pounce on.
8. Tool holder: The left end cap has a rim so it can be used for tool storage.
9. Screws to secure the cutter base: Make sure all three screws are secured at each side
before the cutter is used.
10. Media basket: The stand and linen media basket come standard with all S CLASS™
cutters.

1. Pinch rollers: The pinch rollers clamp the media to the drive system to ensure accurate
tracking. The S120(T) has one and the SS160(T) and S 140(T) have two extra pinch rollers
to ensure that wide media stays flat in the middle. The outer drive pinch rollers have a
selectable pressure; the extra rollers in the middle can be enabled or disabled. Do not
move the pinch roller assemblies while holding them from this side only.
2. Pinch roller lever: This lever is used to raise and lower the pinch rollers for media
loading.
3. The fuse box: The fuse is located at the right side of the power entry module. Check the
specification section to see which fuse is used in the S CLASS™ cutter.
CAUTION: For continued protection against risk of fire, replace only with the same type and
rating of fuse.
4. Power On/Off switch: This rocker switch, in the middle of the power entry module, sets
the cutter’s power to ON or OFF. To switch on the power, press the “I” side of the rocker
switch. To switch off the power, press the “O” side of the rocker switch.
5. AC power cord receptacle: It is located at the left-hand side of the power entry
module. The power-up procedure is explained in detail in Section 1.3. Always use a
power cord that was delivered with your cutter.

6. USB port: This interface is based on the standards specified in Universal Serial Bus
Specifications Revision 1.1. It allows a high-speed bi-directional communication
between the host computer and the cutter.

1.3 Connecting the Cutter to the Mains
1.3.1 Grounding (“Earthing”)
CAUTION: An insulated ground conductor must be installed as part of the branch circuit that
supplies power to the wall outlet to which the cutter is connected. The ground conductor
must have the same size, insulation material and thickness as the grounded and ungrounded
branch circuit supply conductors, but the insulating seat should be green or green with
yellow striping.
The ground conductor described above must be grounded at the electrical distribution
board or, if power is supplied by a separate system, at the power supply transformer/motor
generator set.
The wall sockets into which the cutter is plugged must be of the grounded type. The
grounded conductors serving the wall socket must be properly connected to the ground.
For emergency access, the cutter should be installed near the socket-outlet for easy access.

1.3.2 Operating voltage
CAUTION: Before changing the fuse, make sure that the cutter is completely disconnected
from its power source.
CAUTION: For continued protection against risk of fire, replace only with the same type and
rating of fuse.
Fuse Rate: T2.0A, 250V SCHURTER SPT OR EQUIVALENT.
The power supply detects the line voltage and switches automatically between 110V and
230V.
