METAL CUTTING
When cutting metal clamp material down. Be extra certain that you move the saw along slowly. Use lower speeds. Do not twist, bend, or force the blade. If the saw jumps or bounces, use a blade with finer teeth. If the blade seems clogged when cutting soft metal, use a blade with coarser teeth.
For easier cutting, lubricate the blade with a stick of cutting wax, if available, or cutting oil when cutting steel. Thin metal should be
sandwiched between two pieces of wood or tightly clamped on a single piece of wood (wood on top of the metal). Draw the cut lines or design on the top piece of wood.
When cutting aluminum extrusion or angle iron, clamp the work in a bench vise and saw close to the vise jaws.
When sawing tubing and the diameter is larger than the blade is deep, cut through the wall of the tubing and then insert the blade into the cut rotating the tube as you saw.
