tip: douBle cutting
Most materials (listed on p. 10) shear very well with just one
cut. However, some brands of fiber cement siding and other
products may require cutting twice to produce a better cut.
Simply make your first cut 1/8" to 1/4" (3 to 6mm) longer
than your mark, then go back and make your second cut on
your mark. This is very useful to create a cleaner cut when
a trim molding or transition cannot be used to cover your
cut end.
USE EXTREME CAUTION! Blade is very sharp.
Always keep hands away from blade.
