I'm still pretty new to the Summa cutter and trying to learn the ins and outs of it. It's a Summa D140.
I've been cutting 10 ft. panels for about a month just fine. Trying to get the most out of each roll. I had gotten pretty good at estimating whether I could get one more out of it, coming out to less than 10" vinyl on the roll sometimes. Somehow within the past week, something has changed, don't know if by accident by me, or electrical surge during a storm. I now have to have about 4 ft. extra on the roll for me to even get my normal panel. It feeds out more than it needs. The actual pael is not cutting any bigger in the end, it's only while it's cutting that it need the overage. But if it starts and there's not enough on roll it will cut most of it, then feed out more and then run to the end and I have to turn it off. Then of course I've lost the whole thing because it has cut marks on it.
I've tried setting it back to factory defaults and that hasn't helped.
PLEASE HELP!! I hate all of the waste of material.
