Instructions for using the product:
• Check that the blades of the scissors are sharp and undamaged. If the blades are dull or damaged, they should be replaced before use.
• Prepare the work surface on which you will be cutting. Make sure the surface is flat, stable and suitable for cutting materials.
• Hold the scissors by the handle and press the blades against the material you want to cut. Use even pressure to ensure a clean cut.
• For thicker materials or metal profiles, you can use extra power by using both hands to cut. Be sure to maintain stability and control of the shears.
• After cutting, check the result. If necessary, remove any remaining material or smooth the edges.
• After use, clean the scissors with a damp cloth or brush to remove any material residue.

Useful tips for work:
• Before cutting larger pieces of sheet metal or profiles, mark the desired cutting line with a pencil or marker to ensure accuracy.
• When cutting long pieces of sheet metal or profiles, use a guide or ruler to maintain a straight cut line.
• When cutting thin sheet metal or profiles, use less pressure on the scissors handles to prevent deformation of the material.
• For cutting more complex shapes, use a stencil or template to help you achieve the desired result.
• When cutting thicker pieces of sheet metal or profiles, apply more pressure to the scissors handles, but be careful not to overload the blades.

Warnings:
• The blades are very sharp – risk of serious cuts.
• Wear safety glasses and appropriate protective gloves when working.
• Cut metal edges can be extremely sharp; handle them with care.
• Do not use damaged, loose or deformed scissors.
• Do not use scissors to cut electrical cables or other materials for which they are not intended.
• Do not insert your fingers between the cutting edges and be careful of the joint area.
• When cutting longer pieces, ensure that the cut part cannot fall on you or other people.
• After finishing work, always close the shears and secure them with the latch.
• Keep out of reach of children.

Same summary

Stanley FatMax 250 mm sheet metal shears with chrome-molybdenum blades are suitable for home craftsmen and those who occasionally need to cut various types of sheet metal precisely. Due to the manual operation and ergonomically designed handle, they work well for smaller DIY projects, repairs or workshops. The shears are not intended for intensive everyday cutting of thicker or particularly hard metals, where a stronger or battery-powered version would be recommended. Their advantage is a reliable grip and a safety lock, which makes it easier to use even at height or in confined spaces.
