MAKING CUTS
The Magnum Edge Siding Shear is operated manually. The two-part extendable handle is grasped by the operator and
pushed down to make a cut. A SIDING BLADE IS PRE-INSTALLED IN THIS SHEAR, DO NOT USE IT TO CUT HARDWOOD.
1. To unlock, gently press handle down, slide
Cam-Lock (A) in and down.
TIP: DOUBLE CUTTING
Most materials shear very well with just one cut. However, some brands may require cutting twice to produce a better cut.
Simply make your first cut 1/8" to 1/4" (3 to 6mm) longer than your mark, then go back and make your second cut on your
mark. This is very useful to create a cleaner cut when a trim molding or transition cannot be used to cover your cut end.

STATION OR STAND
Using a T30 bit (included) and socket or screw driver,
unscrew four lower rail attachment bolts 1/4" (6mm). Slip
mounting brackets up over rail attachment bolts and
tighten securely. Fasten to chop-saw stand or cut station
using appropriate hardware such as 5/16" diameter bolts
or lag-screws and corresponding washers (not included).
When using a bench-type cut station, it is convenient to
fasten some dimensional lumber in place as 'spacers'
before attaching your shear.
