Operation
APPLICATIONS:
Cutting various types of metals.
ASSEMBLY:
WARNING: ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE SAW
FROM POWER SOURCE BEFORE MAKING
ADJUSTMENTS.
Install authorized saw blade as detailed in the
"Change Saw Blade" on page 19.
PRE-OPERATION:
PREPARE MATERIAL BEFORE CUTTING:
1.
The type of material to be cut, (which determines
blade selection) thickness and position should
be determined to ensure proper performance.
2.
Remove excess mill scale or rust from material to
be cut.
3.
Material that has been flame cut may have become
heat treated, making it difficult to cut. Avoid these
areas if possible.
4.
Material should be clean and level, free from rust,
scale, dirt and chips.
5.
Material to be cut may need to be supported to
minimize the risk of the blade pinching, kickback
and blade hitting the support surface. Fasten
material securely to support surface.
