Permissible cutting thickness
The thickness of material to be cut depends upon the
tensile strength of the material itself. The groove on the
die holder acts as a thickness gauge for allowable cutting
thickness. Do not attempt to cut any material which will
not fit into this groove.
Cutting line
The notch in the die holder indicates your cutting line. Its
width is equal to the cutting width. Align the notch to the
cutting line on the workpiece when cutting.
Switch action
CAUTION:
• Before plugging in the tool, always check to see
that the switch actuates properly and returns to the
"OFF" position when the rear of the switch lever is
depressed.
• Switch can be locked in "ON" position for ease of
operator comfort during extended use. Apply cau-
tion when locking tool in "ON" position and maintain
firm grasp on tool.
