Cutting Tips
•
replace, sharpen, and clean blades as nec-
essary to maintain optimum cutting perfor-
mance.
•
use even pressure while cutting. heavy or
irregular pressure can lead to poor cuts and
may damage the blade.
•
misusing the saw or using incorrect tech-
niques is unsafe and results in poor cuts.
remember—the blade does the cutting with
the operator's guidance.
