Could be the blade holder as well. How old is it?Hi there,
I wonder if anyone can help? My CE5000-60 has being working well for a few years but all of a sudden is cutting really poor.
I haven’t changed my blade or cutting strip for a while but find it strange it would be this because it’s not gradually got worse, it seems to have quickly got bad.
When I’m weeding a lot of it is fine but there are a few really bad cuts where sometimes as much as 5mm just being missed. The middle of zeros are not being finished off and I’m having to cut them out!
The only change there has been is that I’ve moved into an outside studio so it does get quite cold over night but surely this isn’t the problem? Or does it sound like blade or cutting strip? Any ideas will be greatly appreciated!!
Many thanks everyone
James

Try checking around the blade holder for debris. I had that happened to me and I thought I needed a new blade. When I went to replace it, there was a tiny piece of vinyl wrapped around the blade.
Not sure if this helps you or not but my SSK designtech 60 (a relabeled graphtec.) will default back to pen mode rather then the blade and when it does that it doesn't complete cuts and makes weeding a nightmare.
Thanks everyone, this is all helpful.
I will have a go at taking it apart and giving it a clean out this morning and will let you know how it goes....
