1. Intended use. This Power Tool is intended for industrial
applications, for cutting sheet metal (maximum capacity is
indicated in the Specifications), for use with cutting jaws
and cutting blades which are indicated in these operating
instructions or recommended by DRÄCO
2. Initial Operation

drill. Circular cuts: Always cut counter clockwise and
from left to right.
Do NOT cut sheet metal along welding points. Do
3.

5. For inside cutting, if cutting a radius with the right hand,
cut from right to left. The outside radius is unlimited.
6. For cutting out curved or circular inside patterns, a 14 mm
(± 1/2 ") hole, or a punched slot should be made to insert
the centre cutter.
7. If after cutting, a small strip remains this can easily be
trimmed off to the exact measurement, without leaving a
burr or any distortion of the material. Just one side of the
cordless tools can be used for cutting also (e.g. along a
marked line). Lift the power tools out of the shavings while
the motor is running. Cut off longer shavings.
8. Both knife and jaws can be sharpened. After being
sharpened or replaced, the knife at it's lowest point should
protrude the jaws by approximately 3 mm. The knife should
have approximately 0,05 mm (0,005") play on each side of
the jaws, centring the cutter with spacing shims supplied.
9. Every 200 operating ours have the cutting blade and
cutting jaws sharpened at a specialist workshop.
10. Ensure that the material to be cut is free of oil and
grease.
