SAWING TIPS
Following a few simple tips will reduce the wear on the workpiece, the tool and the operator.
—Blades cut on the draw or back stroke. On fine work, such as paneling, fiberglass, etc., place the good side of workpiece facing down.
—Use the correct saw blade for the material being cut and keep extra blades on hand to use when others become dull. Replace cracked or bent
blades immediately.
—Use the appropriate cutting speed and select the appropriate cutting depth.
—To reduce the risk of injury, be sure the blade always extends beyond the blade guide and work throughout the stroke (Figure 5). Blades may shatter
if the front on the blade hits the work and/or the blade guide (Figure 6).
—Maintain a minimum of three (3) teeth engaged in the work. Finer teeth produce a smoother but slower cut.
WHEN CUTTING METAL
—Apply a lubricant for easier, smoother, faster cutting and longer blade life.
—For non-ferrous metals, aluminum, bronze or brass, use a stick wax on the blade.
—For ferrous metals, iron and steel, use machine or cutting oil along the surface to be cut.
—When cutting thin metal, "sandwich" the material between two pieces of scrap wood. Clamp or put in a bench vise. One piece of lumber on top of the
metal can be used with adequate clamping. Place your cut lines or design on the wood.
Figure 5: Correct
—Don't force the cutting. Let the saw and blade do the work.

MAINTENANCE
Water, dust and other airline contaminants can cause rust. For long periods between tool use, flush the tool with a few drops of oil and run for 10
seconds. This will help remove contaminants and reduce the formation of rust. Check the speed of the tool regularly by placing a contact type
tachometer to the chuck. In addition, always check the speed and do a simple vibration check after any servicing. If the tool exceeds the rated speed
or vibrates excessively, discontinue use and contact an Authorize Sioux Service Center.
