When cutting stainless steel plates, adjust the unit as described below:
1. Adjust the speed
NOTE: Dial scale reading is for reference only. The higher the speed is, the quicker the
material is cut. But the service life of the blade will be reduced in this case. When
the speed is too low, cutting will take longer, although the service life will be
prolonged. Make adjustments as desired.
2. Set the orbital position to “0”
NOTE: When cutting use cutting fluid (oil base cutting fluid) to prolong the blade’s
service life.
SELECTION OF BLADES
⅜ Accessory blades
To ensure maximum operating efficiency and results, it is very important to select the
appropriate blade best suited to the type and thickness of the material to be cut. Three
types of blades are provided as standard accessories. The blade number is engraved in
the vicinity of the mounting portion of each blade. Select appropriate blades by referring
to Table 1 (page 18).
