OPERATION (cont.) Cutting Metal Your jigsaw can be used for cutting light gauge ferrous sheet and non-ferrous metals such as copper, brass, aluminium, etc. It is advisable when cutting sheet metal to clamp a backing sheet of soft wood or plywood to the work as this will enable you to obtain a clean cut without vibration and the possibility of tearing the metal.
Always replace both brushes at the same time. Note: Ozito Industries will not be responsible for any damage or injuries caused by the repair of the tool by an unauthorised person or by mishandling of the tool.
