pressure gives you the smoothest cutting. It is important to keep the
lower surfaces of the side blades flat on the material being cut
(Figure 4). When cutting curves, do not tilt the tool; keep the side
blades flat and level. For best cutting efficiency, keep blades sharp.
Wear gloves when handling sheet metal. The edges are sharp and
can cause injury.
CAUTION: Do not use the shear with any kind of accessory or
attachment. Such usage might be hazardous.
Adjustment (Figure 5)
To adjust the curl of waste material, the left side knife has elongated
holes. Adjustment may be necessary after changing blades or
material being cut. Loosen cap screws and tap side knife either
forward or backward so that curl of waste does not hit shear housing
or work material while cutting.
Lubrication
All ball bearings are factory lubricated to last the life of the tool. All
sleeve and needle bearings receive their lubrication from grease in
the gear case. Clean and re-lubricate gear case yearly or whenever
servicing requires the gear case to be removed. Use type and
quantity of grease shown on the parts bulletin packed with your tool.
