Foreseen Use of the Tool
The tool is designed to cut sheet metal by a shear action using a
moving blade and two fixed blades. It will cut metal sheet of thickness
1.2 mm in steel and 1.6mm in aluminium. The tool cuts the sheet
by removal of a strip of metal the width of the moving blade. It is
possible to cut various types of sheet in other materials i.e. plastic and
fibre board either in flat or corrugated form.
Do not use the tool for any other purpose than that for which it is
designed and never modify the tool for any other use.
Putting Into Service
Air Supply
Use a clean lubricated air supply that will give a measured air pressure
at the tool of 90 p.s.i./6.3 bar when the tool is running with the trigger
fully depressed. Use recommended hose size and length. It is
recommended that the tool is connected to the air supply as shown
in figure 1. Do not connect the tool to the air line system without
incorporating an easy to reach and operate air shut off valve. The air
supply should be lubricated. It is strongly recommended that an air
filter, regulator, lubricator (FRL) is used as shown in Figure 1 as this
will supply clean, lubricated air at the correct pressure to the tool.
Details of such equipment can be obtained from your supplier. If such
