METALCUTTING (FIG. G)
f Use a finer blade for ferrous metals and a coarse
blade for non-ferrous materials.
f In thin gauge sheet metals it is best to clamp wood
to the underside of the sheet. This will ensure a clean
cut without excess vibration or tearing of metal.
f Avoid forcing cutting blade as this reduces blade life
and causes costly blade breakage.
Note: Spread a thin film of oil or other coolant along the
line ahead of the saw cut for easier operation and longer
blade life.
POCKET CUTTING-WOODONLY (FIG.H)
f Measure the surface area to be cut and mark clearly
with a pencil, chalk or scriber.
f Insert blade in blade clamp and tighten blade clamp
securely.
f Tip the saw backward until the back edge of the shoe
is resting on the work surface and the fully extended
moving blade will clear the surface.
f Grip unit with both hands, switch motor on permitting
blade to obtain maximum speed.
f Begin a slow, deliberate upward swing with the main
handle of the saw.
f The blade will begin to feed into material. Always
be sure blade is completely through material before
continuing with pocket cut.
Note: In areas where blade visibility is limited, use the
edge of the shoe as a guide.
PROJECT TIPS
f Cut only with sharp blades; they cut cleaner, faster
and put less strain on the motor while cutting.
f When cutting, always ensure that the shoe is held
firmly against the workpiece and the workpiece is
secured from moving/deflecting. This will improve
operator control and minimize vibration.
f For longer blade life, use bi-metal blades. These
utilize a carbon steel back welded to high speed steel
teeth making the blade more flexible and less prone to
breaking.
ACCESSORIES
This saw will accept up to a 12 inch long blade. Always
use the shortest blade suitable for your project but long
enough to keep the blade cutting through the material.
Longer blades are more likely to be bent or damaged
during use. During operation some longer blades may
vibrate or shake if the saw is not kept in contact with the
workpiece.
