Power supply
The tool should be connected only to a power supply
of the same voltage as indicated on the nameplate,
and can only be operated on single-phase AC supply.
They are double-insulated in accordance with Euro-
pean Standard and can, therefore, also be used from
sockets without earth wire.
Safety hints
For your own safety, please refer to the enclosed
safety instructions.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES
1. Always lead the power supply cord away from
the tool towards the rear.
2. Do not touch the blade or the workpiece imme-
diately after operation; they may be extremely
hot and could burn your skin.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Charging the die position (Fig. 1)
Important:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before changing the die position.
The die position can be changed 360°. To change it,
proceed as follows.
1. Loosen the lock nut with the wrench provided.
2. Pull the die holder slightly and turn it to the desired
position for operation.
3. Tighten the lock nut to secure the die holder in the
desired position.
There are four positive stops at 90° each: 0°, 90° left
and right and 180°.
To position the die to any of these positive stops:
1. Loosen the lock nut with the wrench provided.
2. Pull the die holder slightly and depress lightly
while turning it to the desired position. The die
holder will lock into one of the positive stop
positions as desired.
3. Turn the die holder slightly to make sure that it is
positively locked into position.
4. Tighten the lock nut to secure the die holder.
Switching ON and OFF (Fig. 2)
Caution:
Before plugging in the tool, always check to see that
the switch actuates properly and returns to the ‘‘OFF’’
position when the rear of the switch lever is
depressed.
To switch on, depress the rear of the switch lever and
push it forward. Then depress the front of the switch
lever to lock it.
To switch off, depress the rear of the switch lever.
Thickness gauge (Fig. 3)
The groove in the die holder serve as the thickness
gauge for allowable cutting thickness.
Cutting line (Fig. 3)
The notch in the die holder indicates your cutting line.
Its width is equal to the cutting width. Align the notch
to the cutting line on the workpiece when cutting.
Pre-lubrication
Coat the cutting line with tool oil to increase the punch
and die service life. This is particularly important when
cutting aluminum.
