TIPS
AND TECHNIQUES
TIP 7 When cutting several thicknesses of sheet material
make several lighter cuts rather than a few heavy cuts.
TIP 1 Choose The blade best suited to your application.
Thinner blades cut throuqh sweet material with less
effort.
TIP 2 Thicker blades resist breaking and are ideal
for cutting material such as carpeting when you may
heed to exert some lateral force.
TIP 3 To avoid tearing always use a sharp blade
and lower the angle to create a slicing action.
TIP 4 Wet paper and plastic film is best cut with
a convex blade or a straight blade held at a low angle.
TIP 5 For cutting fine materials use a cutting mat.

with a finger protecting channel.

sharpness to avoid damaging the work and reduce
the amount of effort you need to exert.
