Great!
Cuts through 18 gauge steel sheets like hot butter!

Very good cutting tool for heavy gauge material
Makes quick work when cutting heavy gauge steel and aluminum. I use a reostat to slow it down to make it easier to control. A variable speed trigger on the tool would be helpful.

Good Tool but no English instructions
I attempted to use shear to cut aluminum sheeting around 2 feet long. I could cut around 4 inches until shear stalled. I guess aluminum was thicker than machine was capable of cutting. I finally used my Makita 7 1/4 inch worm drive saw with a wood blade that I flipped the blade over to make desired cut. I would recommend that seller provide information on where to get English instructions from and also where I may register tool for warranty.

Makita matters
The shear arrived a couple of days ago. It is 100 volts not 120 volts listed by Amazon. Moreover, stated on FAQ that "it is 120 volts intended for the American market". There is an English version PDF of the manual on the Amazon site. Be sure to use the proper gauge settings. My research informs me that the voltage discrepancy could result in the shear running hot and/or faster than designed. A voltage converter is an option for those concerned, however, I am not experiencing either. It may come down to frequency of use. Welders are rated for "duty cycle". I am not giving the shear continuous use. The shear is not for precision cuts and is difficult to maneuver. I bought this shear for roughing out shapes from large sheets of 14ga carbon and stainless steel before band sawing or plasma cutting. Cutting curves are easiest when cutting "right". Unfortunately, I am right-handed, so this is awkward for someone accustomed to cutting curves left during fifty years of practice. Think green handled aviator shears or "cuts right" and red "cuts left". The shear is very well made and rugged. It will be valued by me on an "as needed" basis and as a welcome component in support of my physical plant tooling. Just know what you are in for before taking this shear for a ride.

Superb
Amazing tool! Cut the stainless sheet material almost perfectly. Powerful motor and precise cutting action. Takes some muscle, but best option I have found.

1.6mm以上の鉄板を切り粉をあまり出さずに切りたかったので購入しましたが、正直使い物にならないかなぁ プロ用だよね?トリガーONでMAX回転しかでないので回転数調整が出来ません。 AC高トルクモーターなのでトリガーONで高回転がかかり、回転方向に本体が振れます。 切れ味は素晴らしいく、300mmの長さの普通鉄板は10秒位でカット出来ますが、慣れかガイドが欲しいですね(販売してないので自作するしかないですが) で、試しにコーナン販売の1.6mm普通鉄板をカットしたのですが、切り始めと切り終わりが変形します。 カット幅が小さいほど切り落とし側がカット中に巻いてくるのですが、偶に本体を巻き込んで進まなくなります。 トリガーONでMAXしか調整出来ないのでカット中に調整も出来ないので凄く使いずらいですね 2mm以上の鉄板ならまた違った使用感になるかもなのでまた追記します ※スピードコントローラーを使えば操作性は多少マシになりますが、相性もあるのでなんとも言えません 追記 3㎜鋼板でもやはり切り始めは部材が変形しますね。(本家紹介画像も変形しているので仕様)このタイプのシャーだとどれも一緒の使用感になるかと思います。切れる厚が違いますが、JS161DZ が優秀すぎた。 スピコン使って、切り始めの制御は多少マシになりましたが、弱くし過ぎると止まるので良し悪しがあります。 鉄筋カッターのように高価になっても変速ギア使って低速高トルクでゆっくり幅広に切れたほうが使い勝手は良いのですが、現状の素の状態だとトリガーを全て握りこんで最速で回してる1000N以上のインパクトレンチのように、使い始めはACモーターの回転モーメント方向に本体がブレますので、慣れるまでは凄く使いにくいです。 大まかに、早く切るって運用ならば、確かに凄く早いです。鉄鋼用の刃を付けた丸鋸なんかも勝負にならないくらい早く、楽に切れ、切粉も出ないのでそこは優秀 が、切り始めの制御が出来ないので使い勝手ではニブラに負けるって感じです。ニブラと違って切粉が出ないメリットはあります。 回転を上げきって、安定した状態で、部材の切り出し部分に決め打ちして刃を入れれば良いのですが、切り始めが上手く部材に入っていかない事もあるので、本当に慣れが必要ですね。やはり現状ではこの評価となります。

パワーがあるが。すごく使いずらい。手で切った方が早い。
