Removing & Installing Blade - Grizzly T30945 Owner's Manual

Removing &
Installing Blade
The Model T30945 uses abrasive continuous-rim
blades. This type of blade does not cut and wear
like typical "toothed" blades, instead they cut and
grind simultaneously, making them perfect for
ceramics. To maintain the optimal cutting capabil-
ity of your tile saw, the blade should be changed
when the abrasive portion of it has worn away
or becomes glazed over and dressing is not an
option.
