Set
Always use sharp blades. Dull blades tend to over-
load the tool and increase the chance of Kickback.
Only use thin kerf blades with a maximum safe oper-
ating speed greater than the no load RPM marked on
the tool’s nameplate. Read the blade manufacturer’s
instructions before use. Do not use any type of abra-
sive cut-o wheel or dry diamond cutting blades. Use
the correct blade type for your application. Using the
wrong blade may result in reduced performance or
damage to the blade. Do not use blades that are
cracked or have broken teeth. Do not sharpen ferrous
metal cutting blades; see the blade manufacturer’s
recommendations regarding sharpening.
Blade Guard
Keep the blade guard area free of accumulated
sawdust and debris. Saw may operate sluggishly due
to a build-up of debris which could result in possible
serious injury. Wear appropriate PPE while clearing
out the blade guard area when using compressed air.
