Metal Cutting
,_ WARNING: Never use the wood-cutting blade for cutting metals. Failure to
do so could result in serious personal injury.
NOTICE: A blade for cutting metal is not supplied.
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 tool.
The use of cutting oil is recommended when cutting soft metals and steel.
Cutting oil will keep the blade cool, increase cutting action, and prolong
blade life.
_, WARNING: To avoid possible serious injury:
• Never use gasoline, because normal sparking could ignite the fumes.
• Securely clamp the workpiece in position, and make the cut close to the
clamping point to minimize vibration.
• When cutting conduit pipe or angle iron, clamp the work in a vise, if possible,
and cut close to the vise.
• To cut thin sheet material, "sandwich" the material between pieces of
hardboard or plywood, and clamp the layers together to reduce vibration and
tearing of the material.
