BEFORE using the Twin Cutter Saw for the first time, ALWAYS familiarize yourself
with tire saw by making practice cuts in scrap rnateriais.
The weight of this saw helps to make the cuts smoother. Learn how to safely handle
and control the weight of the saw.
ALWAYS be sure that you position the blades perpendicular to the plane of the
workpiece. Make the cut at an approximate 30" angle to the workpiece surface.

Practice the proper feed speed rate for 1!ie materials being cut. The blades spin at a
consistent 4600 RPM {no-load speed).
Engage the on/off switch to start the saw, ALWAYS let the blades reach full speed
before you begin the cut into the workpiece.
IMPORTANT: When using your saw, ALWAYS stay alert and exercise control.
DO NOT remove your saw from the workpiece, while the blade is moving.
