General Operating Instructions
1. Make sure that all guards are in place and in
proper working order and that all adjustment
knobs are tight before operation.
Do NOT operate Saw without blade guard or if
blade guard is broken or not operating properly.
2. Use the Lubrication Unit when cutting Aluminium,
Copper, Stainless Steel and Cast Iron.
These materials can soften and stick to the blades.
3. Before starting a cut, draw a guideline
along the desired line of cut.
4. Place the front edge of the saw blades on that
part of the workpiece that is solidly supported.
5. Do NOT place the saw on the part of the
workpiece that will fall off when the cut is made.
6. Slide the power switch forward to start the saw.
Let the blades reach full speed before beginning cut.
WARNING! Closely observe position of
saw’s housing during cut. Do not let housing
bump up against material being cut.
Cutting Capacities
PVC Pipe up to 1″
Copper Pipe up to 1″
Steel Pipe up to 1″
Corrugated Sheet Standard Thickness
Sheet Steel up to 14 gauge
Sheet Aluminum up to 1/8″
Oak Wood up to 3/4″
7. Cut using steady, even pressure.
Do NOT force the Saw. Forcing the saw
causes rough cuts and could shorten the
life of the saw or cause kickback.
NOTE: THIS SAW WORKS BEST FOR SHORT CUTS.
For cuts longer than 6″, it is especially important
to follow the feed speed recommendations below,
and stop the cut or feed more slowly if the
motor starts slowing down during the cut or
if the blades start separating.
For materials thicker than 1/16″,
cuts longer than 6″ are not recommended.
8. Feed blade straight into the cut.
Feeding at an angle can damage the blade teeth.
9. To prevent accidents, turn off the tool and
disconnect its power supply after use. Clean, then
store the tool indoors out of children’s reach.
Feed Speed
Correct feed speed is determined by the hardness
and the thickness of the material being cut.
See following pages for how to cut certain cross sections.
In thin materials, feed the blades down with the teeth
protruding. Then move forward (or backward) for cutting.
1. If the feed speed is too slow:
a. The blades will only press down the
material instead of cutting it.
b. The blade edges will glide and
wear down the material.
c. This will cause a poor cut and will cause
excessive wear on the blades.
2. If the feed speed is too fast:
a. The cut may split or splinter
the workpiece.
b. Thiswillresultinapoorcutwithsignicant
discharge on the lower side of the material.
c. If feed speed is not slowed, the split will
grow bigger, potentially leading to
serious injury and property damage.
