METAL CUTTING
The saw can be used to cut metals, such
as sheet steel, pipe, steel rods, aluminum,
brass, and copper. Be careful not to twist or
bend the saw blade. Do not force.
The use of cutting oil is recommended when
cutting soft metals and steel. Cutting oil will
keep the blade cool, increase the cutting
action, and prolong blade life.
WARNING:
Never use gasoline,
because normal sparking could ignite the
fumes.
1. Securely clamp the workpiece in
position, and make the cut close to
the clamping point in order to minimize
vibration of the work being cut.
2. When cutting conduit pipe or angle iron,
clamp the work in a vise, if possible, and
cut close to the vise.
3. To cut thin sheet material, “sandwich”
the material between pieces of
hardboard or plywood, and clamp
the layers together in order to reduce
vibration and tearing of the material.
