OPERATION
Pre-lubrication
Coat the cutting line with machine oil to increase the
punch and die service life. This is particularly important
when cutting aluminum.
Cutting method
Hold the tool so that the cutting head is at a right angle
(90°) to the workpiece being cut. Move the tool gently in
the cutting direction.
Cutouts
Cutouts can be done by first opening a round hole over
21 mm (13/16") in diameter which the cutting head can
be inserted into.
