- Rendemento óptimo: A fresh or minimally worn cutting stick contributes significantly to the longevity of your cutting blade and the quality of your cuts.
- Profundidade da lámina: Ensure your cutting machine's blade depth is correctly calibrated so that it cuts just deep enough into the stick to sever the material, but not excessively deep, which would prematurely wear out the stick.
