How to use

Secure the workpiece firmly before filing. Hold the file by the two-component grip and apply steady, even strokes along the length of the file, moving away from your body on the forward stroke if using a push technique. Use light to moderate pressure to let the file do the cutting; avoid excessive force that can clog the teeth or damage the workpiece. Periodically clean the file teeth with a file card or brush to maintain cutting efficiency.

Recommendations

Use the KWB 480380 for controlled metal shaping and deburring in areas with limited access. Choose appropriate personal protective equipment such as gloves and eye protection, and keep the file clean to preserve cutting performance.
