Care of Blades
Blades become dull even from cutting regular lumber. If you find yourself forcing the saw
forward to cut instead of just guiding it through the cut, chances are the blade is dull or coated
with wood pitch.
When cleaning gum and wood pitch from blade, unplug the saw and remove the blade.
Remember, blades are designed to cut, so handle carefully. Wipe the blade with kerosene
or similar solvent to remove the gum and pitch. Unless you are experienced in sharpening
blades, we recommend you do not try.
