We recommend that you use cutting oil to lubricate the cut
when sawing soft metals and steel. It keeps the blade
cooler and prolongs blade life.
Caution. Clamp the work firmly and cut close to the
clamping point to minimise vibration. When cutting
conduit pipe or angle iron, clamp the work in a vice if
possible and cut close to the vice. To cut thin sheet metal,
sandwich the sheet between hardboard or plywood and
clamp the layers to prevent vibration and the tearing of
the metal.
Maintenance
Cleaning
1. Keep the tool’s air vents unclogged and clean at
all times.
2. Remove dust and dirt regularly. Cleaning is best done
with compressed air or a rag.
3. Re-lubricate all moving parts at regular intervals.
4. Never use caustic agents to clean plastic parts.
Caution. Do not use cleaning agents to clean the plastic
parts of the saw. A mild detergent on a damp cloth is
recommended. Water must never come into contact with
the saw.
General inspection
Regularly check that all the fixing screws are tight. They
may vibrate loose over time.
