MIRANDA – Hand Hacksaw

Miranda Hand & Power Hacksaws
Metal Cutting Bandsaw Blades

Care to be taken for better cutting:

• Mount the blade on the frame in the direction indicated on it.
• Apply the correct tension to the blade.
• Ensure the pressure is applied during the cutting stroke & is off during the return to avoid “dragging” and consequent dulling of the teeth.
• Do not start cutting on sharp edges as this violates the “Three Teeth Rule”.
• Start the cut at a slight angle and light pressure, gradually increasing the pressure as more teeth come in contact with the job.
• For extremely thin sections, clamp the section between two pieces of wood & cut as a whole.
