   • Umieść jedną płytkę tnącą na platformie maszyny.
   • Position your Thinlits die on top of the cutting pad.
   • Place your chosen material (e.g., paper, cardstock) on top of the die.
   • Complete the sandwich with a second cutting pad placed on top of the die and material.
3. Roll through the machine: Feed the assembled sandwich through your die-cutting machine by turning the handle. The machine applies pressure to cut the design.
4. Reveal your design: Once rolled through, carefully remove the cutting pads and separate your newly cut design from the die and excess material.

Ważna uwaga: An Adapter Platform (658992) is required when using Thinlits dies with any Sizzix Big Shot machines. If you have already purchased a Big Shot machine, the adapter is typically included. Place this adapter under the cutting pad sandwich before rolling through the machine.
