• This machine is also compatible with the Glimmer Hot Foil System (sold separately). 

How To Set Up Your New Platinum SIX Black Machine: 

• Find a workspace to use your machine and ensure that it is a clean, flat, dry, and smooth surface. 
• Place the machine front facing so the metal post is to the right side of the machine (the metal post has one flat side). Position the turning handle arm on the metal post, making sure to match the flat side on the post to the flat side ion the turning handle arm opening. 
• Slide the washer into the screw and place both inside the opening at the top of the turning handle arm. Use the supplied Allen wrench and turn the screw clockwise to tighten. Insert the included cap to cover the screw. 
• To remove the turning handle arm, turn the screw counterclockwise to loosen and pull it off (be sure to place the hardware back in a bag and keep it where you can find it easily). 

How to Prepare Your New Platinum SIX Black Machine For Use: 

• Use this machine on a clean, flat, dry, smooth surface. Make sure there is nothing to get in the way of the trays lying flat when opened. The rubberized bottom of the machine will provide stability on the clean, unobstructed surface. 
• Pull down the trays on both sides to slide the platforms and sandwiches through the machine. 
• When finished, fold up the trays for more compact storage. 

How To Clean Your New Platinum SIX Black Machine: 

• Clean your machine with a slightly damp cloth. Do not use a cleaning product or chemical cleaners. Canned air can be used to remove dust and debris from small areas of the machine. 
• If the handle requires lubrication, place a small drop of household dish detergent between the white and silver parts of the turning handle, and rotate the turning handle to distribute the detergent. If the handle needs cleaning, remove and immerse it in clean water and clean it with dish detergent. 
• DO NOT use WD-40 (sold separately) on your machine. 

TIPS: 

• Spellbinders cutting dies (sold separately) allow you to cut, emboss, deboss, and stencil. These dies will cut through a variety of materials such as paper, cardstock, thin foam, thin chipboard, thin fabrics, and thin leather. It is possible some of these materials may not work depending on the intricacy of the dies. The Contour steel rule dies cut multiple layers of many materials including chipboard, wool, felt, fabric, and thin craft metal sheets (all materials sold separately). 
• When working with other companies' products (sold separately), test them first. Most products will work with the New Spellbinders Platinum SIX Machine, but new products are always coming out that may not be compatible because of their thickness, etc. 

WARNINGS: 

• There is a pinch hazard, so avoid the roller gears and/or placing your fingers between platforms and plates. 
• Do not overload your machine or apply excess pressure. 
• There is a cutting hazard so avoid contact with the die blades. 
• Supervision is required when used by children. 
• Do not use outdoors or near water. 
• Only use on a clean, dry, and flat surface.

  Platinum 6

  I absolutely love this machine. I have the Grand Calibur and love it also but at times it is so much larger than I need, I also have the Sapphire and am loving it also because it is great for the tiny things, kind of like the Three
  Bears, Papa, Mama and Just Right! I believe the machines to be superior because they are quieter and smoother to operate. Not as cumbersome as the Sizzix products.

  Great Manual Die Cutter

  I needed a new manual die cutter and loved the fact the Platinum 6 will cut with steel rule dies as well as wafer dies as I own both. I have always loved Spellbinders machines (I have had two previously). The roller pressure is great and the machine makes thick sandwiches go through without feeling like I'm breaking off the handle.

  Wonderful Die Cutting/Embossing Machine

  I am beyond happy with this machine ! I had the Big Shot for about 5 years, and was always having to add "shims" and extra papers to cut a nice clean cut on certain thin dies. Not with this one! All the extra plates make for super easy and CLEAN cuts each time! I haven't been able to stop using it since it came in the mail yesterday! Wonderful product, and the fact it closes up for easy storage and less "space taking" is BRILLIANT! Love!

  Easy to use

  The Platinum 6 is easy to use. The handle turns well, and die cuts come out cleanly. I like the way it folds up and looks good on the shelf when not in use. I find the 6" wide cutting area to be enough - few dies are larger than that, it seems to me. I have only used it for cutting paper, and it is great for that. I love that it is compact, yet does everything I need.

  My favorite tool!

  My Cuttlebug died after 9 years and I decided to upgrade to this beauty. Best decision ever! I absolutely love my new black Platinum 6 die cut machine and it's so easy to layer plates for embossing, die cutting, etc. Sandwich directions are right on the base plate with visuals. It doesn't get any easier! It comes with a thin shim which is great too.

  Disappointed

  I bought this machine to die cut intricate dies and emboss with stencils. It does die cut the intricate dies, better then other machine I have, but the paper remains in the die and is difficult to remove. So far I have been unable to emboss using a stencil. Used different sandwiches to no avail. My old machine has a magnetic platform and the Platinum 6 does not. Contacted Spellbinders and there is no magnetic platform available.

  Great product!

  I previously owned the Sizzix Big Shot before owning the Spellbinders Platinum 6 and I have to say that I love the Platinum 6! This machine folds up to be much more compact for easier storage, is quieter and seems to be smoother when running the plates through! I would definitely recommend this die cutting machine!

  embossing machine

  I'm really loving my Platinum6 machine. I have always used the Big Shot but couldn't find it at Joann's anymore. They discontinued it. I was looking for a replacement and found the Platinum6. I love the fact that it folds up and takes less space on my work counter. This was an excellent replacement.

  Wonderful!

  I've been looking and checking all sorts of reviews for Dye Cutting and Embossing machines. Once I decided to get the Platinum by Spellbinders I've never looked back! This is worth every penny! I use it almost daily and have never had to run the dyes or embossers twice--once does the trick beautifully! True to Spellbinders quality control-- they nailed it! Kudos to you at Spellbinders!
  If you would purchase the Platinum I doubt you would ever be disappointed...I know I'm not!

  New Adventure

  Everything arrived promptly and in good condition. Have not had any experience as yet with the Spellbinder Platinum 6, as I am waiting for other products to arrive so I can begin my new adventure of embossing and die cutting gift cards. However, I do thank you for the good service I have experienced thus far.
