CUTTING ALUMINUM

Aluminum extrusions such as used for making aluminum screens and storm windows can be cut with your compound

miter saw. When cutting aluminum extrusions, or other sections that can be cut with a saw blade and are within the

capacity of the machine, position the material so the blade is cutting through the smallest cross-section (Fig. 28).

The wrong way to cut aluminum angles is illustrated in Fig. 29. Be sure to apply a stick wax to the blade before cut-

ting any aluminum stock. This stick wax is available at most industrial mill supply houses. The stick wax provides prop-

er lubrication and keeps chips from adhering to the blade.

Never apply lubricant to the blade while the machine is running.
