NOTE: In areas where blade visibility is limited, use the edge of the
saw shoe as a guide. Lines for any given cut should be extended
beyond edge of cut to be made.
Metal Cutting (Figure 10)
This unit has different metal cutting capacities depending upon type
of blade used and the metal to be cut. Use a finer blade for ferrous
metals and a coarse blade for non-ferrous materials. In thin gauge
sheet metals it is best to clamp wood to both sides of sheet. This will
insure a clean cut without excess vibration or tearing of metal.
Always remember not to force cutting blade as this reduces blade life
and causes costly blade breakage.
NOTE: It is generally recommended that when cutting metals you
should spread a thin film of oil or other coolant along the line ahead
of the saw cut for easier operation and longer blade life.
