Work Piece and Work Area Set Up
Designate a work area that is clean and 1.
access by children or pets to prevent
distraction and injury.
Route the power cord along a safe 2.
route to reach the work area without
creating a tripping hazard or exposing
the power cord to possible damage. The
power cord must reach the work area
with enough extra length to allow free
movement while working.
Secure loose work pieces using a vise 3.
or clamps (not included) to prevent
movement while working.
There must not be objects, such as utility 4.
lines, nearby that will present a hazard
while working.
Make a practice cut on a piece of scrap 5.
material before cutting the work material.
This will allow you to be sure you are
familiar with the way the tool operates,
and that the cut can be made properly.
General Operating Instructions
Wear ANSI-approved safety goggles, 1.
heavy-duty work gloves, long sleeve
shirt, and jeans.
Plug the tool into an appropriate, breaker 2.
switch protected power outlet.
Position the jaws of the Shear over the 3.
edge of the sheet metal you will cut.
Squeeze the Power Switch to begin 4.
cutting the metal. The Power Switch is
variable, allowing you to vary the cutting
speed by the amount you squeeze it. As
you squeeze more, the tool will increase
speed, and it will cut more slowly as you
release the Power Switch.
Move the Cutting Blades along the 5.
desired cutting line in the work material.
On large pieces of sheet metal, you may 6.
wish to swivel the head to one side or
the other to prevent interference of the
tool handle with the work material. See
previous page for full instructions on how
to swivel the Cutting Head.
To prevent accidents, turn off the tool 7.
and disconnect its power supply after
use. Clean, then store the tool indoors
out of children’s reach.
