Choosing the Correct Speed
The speed you use will depend on the type of materials that you are cutting:
1. Use high speeds for cutting wood.
2. Medium speed is best for non-ferrous materials.
3. Low speed is recommended for cutting metal.
NOTE-Material thickness and blade selection will also affect your speed
selection. As a general rule, as the material thickness increases, the speed
should be slower.
i Ak CAUTION: usa averyslowspeedwhen beginningaCut.Then
increase speed once the cut is started. Prolonged use at a very slow
speed may damage your sew.
