material. Always be sure blade is completely through material
before continuing with pocketcut.
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 (Fig.H)
Your saw 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 ensure 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 lubricant along
the line ahead of the saw cut for easier operation and longer
bladelife.
