OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Note: Refer to Figure E on page 11 during the procedures shown below.

CAUTION! Always use safety equipment. Wear ANSI approved safety impact eye goggles and heavy duty work gloves when operating the Twin Cutter Saw. Also, a dust mask and hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions.

CAUTION! Always check the Lower Guard for proper closing before each use. Do not operate the Twin Cutter Saw if the Lower Guard does not move freely and close instantly.

CAUTION! Always secure the workpiece in place, using a vise or clamps (not included).

1.Make sure the Power Switch is in its “OFF” position and the Power Cord/ Plug is unplugged from the electrical outlet.

2.Insert a Wax Tube into the Lubricating Unit Dispenser. Turn the Lubricating Unit Knob to apply lubricant to the Saw Blades. A 1/4 turn of the Lubricating Unit Knob will provide adequate lubrication for several cuts. If necessary to reapply more Wax, first turn off the Twin Cutter Saw. Wait until the Saw Blades come to a complete stop. Unplug the tool from its electrical outlet. Then, readjust the Wax Tube to continue providing lubricant to the Saw Blades.

3.Plug the Power Cord/Plug into the nearest 120 volt, grounded, electrical outlet.

4.Position the Saw Blades of the Twin Cutter Saw about 1/2” from the beginning cut line on the workpiece. Do not allow the Saw Blades to come in contact with the workpiece. NOTE: The kerf (width of cut) of the two Saw Blades is approximately 1/8”. Always make sure to allow for this.

5.Grip the Twin Cutter Saw firmly with both hands. Then press the Power Switch to turn on the tool.

6.Allow the Saw Blades to spin at full speed before slowly feeding them into the workpiece.

7.When finished making the cut, release the Power Switch to stop the Twin Cutter Saw. Wait until the Saw Blades stop completely. Remove the tool from the workpiece, and unplug the Twin Cutter Saw from its electrical outlet.

8.Always make sure to store the Twin Cutter Saw in a clean, dry, safe location out of reach of children and other unauthorized people.
