4.5 CORRECT POSITIONING OF THE PIECE IN THE
CLAMP (Fig. 11)
The pieces to be cut should be fi tted directly between the
jaws without adding other objects.
Once you have completed all the procedures and operations
described so far, you may start the working processes.
To perform the cut, move to the front of the machine and grip
the handgrip with your right hand.
ATTENTION: Keep your left hand away from the
cutting area and on no account try to reach it
when cutting is in process.
Use your right-hand forefi nger to press start button A (Fig. 4)
and lower the body gradually until the blade lightly touches
the work piece to be cut.
Now begin to apply gradual pressure on the part and
complete the cut.
ATTENTION: Always release button A between
one cutting operation and another, while you are
positioning the part. do not try to block it or alter
its functional characteristics in any way.

If the machine suddenly stops after numerous
consecutive cuts, do not be alarmed. The heat protector
device of the motor has been activated, breaking the
power supply when the temperature of the coils reaches
the threshold limit defi ned by the insulation class, to
prevent damage to the motor.
In this case, release the button A and wait for automatic
reset which usually takes place after a few minutes.

- insert the new blade fi rst between the guides and then
onto the rubber coated pulleys, with the teeth facing as
showed in (Fig. 9) ;

ATTENTION: Never hold the pieces to be cut in
your hand.
When the pieces to be cut are profi led sections, fl at pieces or
special shapes, refer to the examples shown in the fi gures.
If the thickness of the profi led section is to be very thin,
an outline should be fi tted which copies the profi le inside
the profi led section itself to stop it being crushed between
the jaws.
