kindly ask you before starting working with the product carefully read,
understand and apply the given operating manual. You can avoid the
occurrence of accidents and incidents, having got acquainted with methods to
perform the work with machine and following safe working procedures, using
these operating instructions.
GENERAL SAFETY RULES
To ensure safe and reliable operation, grooved scissors should be used in
accordance with instructions. Before you start, you need to read and
understand this manual to the user. You can avoid the occurrence of accidents
and incidents, acquainted with the controls and following safe working
procedures.
WARNING:
Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions
listed below, may result in electric shock, fire and / or serious personal
injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
1.Work Area
Keep your work area clean and well it.
Cluttered benches and dark areas invite accidents.
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence
of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may
ignite the dust or fumes.
Keep bystander children and visitors away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
2.Electrical safety
Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plugs in any way.
Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed power tools. Unmodified plugs and
matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.Do not change the plug in

any way. Double insulation eliminates the need for the three wire grounded
power cord and grounded power supply system.
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges
and refrigerators. These is a increased risk of electric shock if your body is
grounded. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water
entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. Do not abuse the
cord. Never use the cord to carry the tools or pull the plug from an outlet.
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Replace
damaged cords immediately. Damaged cord increase the risk of electric shock.
When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked
“W-A” or “W”. These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of
electric shock.
3. Personal safety
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a
power tool. Do not use tool while tired or under the influence of drugs,
alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools
may result in serious personal injury. Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves
away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in
moving parts.
Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is off before plugging in. Carrying
tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in tools that have the switch
on invites accidents.
Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the tool on. A wrench or a
key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in personal
injury.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing
and balance enables better control of the tool in unexpected situations.
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety
shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate
conditions. Ordinary eye or sun
glasses are NOT eye protection.
4. Tool use and care
Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a
stable platform.
Holding the work by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to
loss of control.
Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will
do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.

Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on or off. Any tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier
to control.
Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any
other condition that may affect the tools operation. If damaged, have the tool
serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.
Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your
model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool, may become hazardous
when used on another tool.
5. Service
Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service or
maintenance performed by unqualified personnel could result in a risk of
injury. When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow
instructions in the Maintenance section of the manual. Use of unauthorized
parts or failure to follow Maintenance instructions may create a risk of electric
shock or injury..
Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any
other condition that may affect the tools operation. If damaged, have the tool
serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.
Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your
model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool, may become hazardous
when used on another tool.

The recess of the holder matrix (4) is considered as a measuring scale, which
indicates the allowable thickness of the die cut.
Line of cut(Fig4)
The gap on the blanking rod indicates the line of cut. The width of the gap is
the same as the width of cut. Make sure to align the line of cut on the work-
piece with the gap.
