To adjust the position of the contact plate:
• Release the contact plate locking lever. (Fig. 4)
• Pull out or push in the contact plate as required.
• Once the plate is in the desired position, push the locking
lever back into its original position to lock the plate in place.
• Check that it is secure.
THE TRIGGER SWITCH
The ON/OFF trigger switch is located within the machines rear
handle. (Fig. 5).
• Squeeze the trigger switch to start the machines motor.
• Release the trigger switch to stop the machines motor.
LOCK-ON SWITCH
The trigger is equipped with a lock-on switch. To operate the
lock-on feature:
• Fully squeeze the trigger to start the machines motor.
• Press and hold the lock-on switch. (Fig. 6)
• Release the trigger then release the lock-on switch.
WARNING: The motor will run continuously until the trigger is
pressed and the lock-on switch is tripped.
THE STROKE RATE CONTROL DIAL
The stroke rate of the machine can be varied. A stroke rate
control dial is located on the trigger. (Fig. 7).
Note: The ergonomic positioning of this control dial allows a
skilled operator to adjust the stroke rate of the machine during
cutting operations.
Rotating this dial will alter the stroke rate of the machine from
approximately 800 strokes a minute up to a maximum of 2800
strokes per minute.
Note: We recommend that the operator begins any cutting
operation using a slow stroke rate, and increases the stroke rate
to achieve optimum performance as cutting progresses.
A practical trial on scrap material may be useful to determine
the best stroke rate for any particular material or application.
