— When using an aggressive depth of cut (for AP or AE), set the Vc and/or fz to the lower side of the value shown in the table.
— Dry cutting (or compressed air) is generally recommended. When excessive chip welding occurs on the cutting edge such as during stainless steel machining, use a water soluble cutting fluid and reduce Vc.
— When wet machining mild steel, carbon steel, or alloy steel, reduce the Vc and/or fz.
— Do not use TAW13 cutters for ramping, plunging, or drilling application as they are not designed for feeding in the Z axis direction.
