The shear is used for making straight cuts in sheet metal as well as other materials. The shearing blade is powered by applying force to the foot pedal located on the lower front of the machine.  To prevent damage to yourself and or the machine make sure you obey the following rules:  

* Maximum aluminum material thickness you can cut with this machine is .07" x full width.   

* Maximum aluminum material thickness you can cut with this machine is .07" x full width.   

* Maximum mild steel thickness you can cut with this machine is .06" x 12" wide

* Maximum mild steel thickness you can cut with this machine is .06" x 12" wide

*Hold Down Handles: The handles used to actuate hold down clamp.

====Operation====

====Operation====

The sheet metal shear is human powered. You will be pressing down on the foot pedal to move the blade that shears the material. The upper rail has two handles for clamping down your work prior to shearing.The manufacturer rates this shear for 16 gauge mild steel but it would be very difficult to cut a full width of material with this machine so we are limiting the width to 12 inches. It is recommended that you stick to thinner and smaller pieces of material when using the machine. This machine is not designed to cut round stock and it will ruin the blade. Keep body parts away from the blade at all times. Don't stick anything you wouldn't want cut off under the blade.  This machine is not designed to cut round stock or hard materials and both of these will ruin the blade.

Only place sheet metal on the shear to prevent other object getting under the blade. After making your cut the edge of the material will most likely be very sharp and need to be deburred.
