7.3 Rocker tool head cutting technique
Aluminium Composite Panels can be cut using the Rocker tool head. The following method is only intended for occasional
use, for cutting on a regular basis the SteelTrak should be considered.
When cutting thinner / less dense materials, ensure the blade
depth is adjusted so only the tip of the blade is going through the
material. Place your hand on the Rocker tool head as shown and
rock it forward to engage the blade.
With the blade engaged, pull the Rocker tool head in
one continuous motion along the material to achieve the best
results.
If the material creases at the beginning of the cut use the index
finger on your other hand to pinch the material onto the base
plate and hold it in place whilst the blade enters the material.
When cutting thicker / more dense materials, ensure the blade
depth is adjusted so the blade tip cuts 1-2mm (
1
⁄
16
) through the
material. Place your hand on the Rocker tool head as
shown, press down with your palm to engage the blade.
