Metal Cutting (Fig. L)
Your saw has different metal cutting capacities depending upon
type of blade used and the metal to be cut. Use a finer blade for
ferrous metals and a coarse blade for non-ferrous materials. In
thin gauge sheet metals it is best to clamp wood to both sides
of sheet. This will ensure a clean cut without excess vibration or
tearing of metal. Always remember not to force cutting blade as
this reduces blade life and causes costly blade breakage.
nOTE: It is generally recommended that when cutting metals
you should spread a thin film of oil or other lubricant along
the line ahead of the saw cut for easier operation and longer
blade life.
