Teeth shapes sketches are not to scale. They should be considered to serve only as an indication.2. The PALSUN should be placed on a firm flat base and clamped into position during sawing.3. When sawing PALSUN it is recommended to leave the protective PE film on.4. If the cut sheet vibrates during sawing, cardboard sheet padding may be placed beneath it to absorb the vibrations.5. When sawing thin gauge palsun it is recommended not to cut single sheets by themselves, but saw a pack of 5-10sheets at the time, clamped firmly together to a steady base.6. Low to moderate feed rate should be used when the sheets approach the blad, or vice versa. A feed rate that is too highcan cause gumming, splitting or breaking of the sheet edges.15
