• When cutting metals other then copper, brass or aluminum, always use a lubricant,
such as cutting oil, to keep the blade cool. This will prolong the life of the blade as
well as speeding up the cutting process.
• Make sure the work piece is held securely in place. Hold smaller pieces, such as
pipe or conduit, in a vise or attach to the workbench with clamps.
• To eliminate vibration, always cut close to the clamping point.
• When cutting thin sheets of metal, place a piece of plywood on either side to control
vibration and prevent tearing.
