     - Select your tabs and leads. This will prevent vibration/pop-ups, which will jam the waterjet and ruin the cut, and also improve accuracy.
       - Usually 2-4 tabs is enough for most materials and thicknesses.
-      - Tab thickness should be proportional to material thickness, a good rule of thumb is for your tab thickness to be 30-50% of your material thickness
+      - Tab thickness should be proportional to material thickness, a good rule of thumb is for your tab thickness to be 30-50% of your material thickness. For very thin materials, we recommend a minimum tab thickness of 0.05"
     - Select the cut quality. This will determine time for each job and the amount of abrasive used.

   - **YOU MUST NOT LEAVE WHILE PART IS BEING CUT**
   - Once the print has been completed, open the lid, unscrew your material, and remove the part. Beware of sharp edges. Make sure all pieces of material are removed from bed.
-  - **Tank Cleaning and Maintenance**. Run a tank cleaning cycle if you are not making another cut for a while or if the machine has been running for more than 4 hours. This will collect abrasive that is at the bottom of the tank. There will be some abrasive that accumulates from the door windows and on the bellows. If they are not coming off easily, let them dry and then sweep.
