MATERIAL.
Metal Cutting (Fig. K)
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 insure 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.
