number, the heavier the cord (see table on the next page).

• 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.
