IMPORTANT COMPATIBILITY INFORMATION
The MD-1 is specifically designed for fabric-circle cutting and button-covering applications. It does not install grommets or eyelets. For eyelet or general fastener installation, a compatible MICRON® hand press such as the TEP-1 is required.
Certain products, including snap covers and baseball-cap buttons, may require a separate hand press and compatible setting dies for final attachment after the fabric-covering step.
