metal parts of the power tool to become live and electrocute the operator.
PREPARING FOR WORK
Warning! When assembling the components, pull out the power plug to disconnect the tool from the power supply.
Changing the blade head setting
The head can be adjusted in any position so that the grip on the tool during cutting be as comfortable as possible. The head can
also be adjusted in four positions in 90° increments for easier straight and sideways cutting.
To reposition the head, loosen its retaining nut (II). Pull the tool head down and rotate to the desired position. If you need to use
one of the four settings in 90° increments, press the head down and then try turning it slightly. If rotation is not possible, it means
that the head has been locked in one of the selected positions. If the head is set at an angle other than every 90°, it is not possible
to lock the head rotation.
Once the head is positioned, fi x it by tightening the nut.
Replacing the blades
Always replace blades in pairs.
The blade heads must be removed to do this by unscrewing the retaining nut (II) completely and then sliding the head out of the
tool housing. Loosen the screw holding the movable blade (III) and slide it out of the holder. Install a new moving blade in the same
place and fi x by tightening the screw.
Unscrew both screws holding the stationary blade (IV) and remove the stationary blade. Fit a new fi xed blade in its place and fi x
it by tightening the screws.
Slide the head onto the moving blade so that it passes completely through the hole in the head, and then fi x by tightening the nut.
Note! After replacing the blades, lubricate them with light machine oil and then run the tool for about 30 seconds.
Blades should be replaced when deteriorated cutting performance is observed. Blades should also be replaced whenever damage
is found on them, such as cracks, chipping or deformation.
TOOL OPERATION
Starting and running the tool
The tool should be held with both hands (V). Hold it in such a way that the blades do not come into contact with any object.
Start the tool by pressing and holding the back of the on/off button and then sliding it forward (VI). The switch can be locked in the
front position which can be helpful during prolonged cutting.
When the tool is started up, hold it in this position for about 30 seconds, watching for any suspicious noises, excessive noise or
excessive vibration.
If no signs of malfunction are found, the tool should be switched off by releasing pressure on the switch or, if it was locked, by
pressing the back of the switch button. The button retracts automatically, the blade can still move for some time after the switch
is released.
The tool can be put away only after the blade has come to a complete standstill.
Cutting
Note! Cutting can only be done in such a way that the head be always perpendicular to the material to be cut.
Prepare the material to be cut. Ensure that its thickness is no greater than the maximum cutting thickness of the tool. Mark the
cutting line on the material. Consider that the cutting width will correspond to the diameter of the moving blade.
Secure the cut material with clamps or vices, for example. When cutting large materials, ensure that the material is supported
close to the cutting line so that the parts to be cut do not collapse towards each other, which can cause the tool to jam during
cutting.
Brush the cutting line with light machine oil. This will make it easier to guide the shear and reduce blade wear.
Start the tool, allow it to reach its nominal speed and then apply it to the edge of the sheet at the point of the cutting line (VII). Move
the tool along the cut line by applying light pressure. Do not apply excessive pressure, only the pressure needed to make the cut.
The tool can be guided in a straight line or in a curve. The radius of the curve must be chosen so that the tool can still be guided
smoothly.
If holes are cut, a hole must fi rst be drilled near the edge of the hole with a diameter such that the head can be passed through.
Then start cutting by guiding the tool along the edge of the hole to be cut.
