By pressing the red press button (1) on the cutting bow, the cutting
wire heats up to the optimum temperature within two seconds.

The press button must be pressed ad held down
during the cutting process.
Press the cutting wire into the material slowly and
with appropriate pressure.
DANGER!
Danger of injury due to the hot cutting wire.
While cutting, keep one hand on the cutting bow
(press button) and the other hand on the material
that has been cut, away from the path of cutting of
the cutting wire.

areas.
Avoid inhaling the vapours released from cutting of
materials.
