FILLING CLEANING WELLS MIXING CLEANING SOLUTION NOTE: Cleaning solution is not included. There are a variety of options when it comes to cleaning saw blades.

FILLING CLEANING WELLS 1.2 SAW BLADE CLEANING WELL (GREEN) Unclasp and remove the large yellow lid from the Saw Blade Cleaning Well (green), and place it on a flat surface to prevent spilling the cleaning solution inside the Router Bit Cleaning Well. Pour the remainder of the cleaning solution into the Saw Blade Cleaning Well (green).
CLEANING SAW BLADES CLEANING SAW BLADES 2.1 SAW BLADES UP TO 12” (350MM) NOTE: Most blades can be cleaned in 30 seconds or less. Blades that haven’t been cleaned regularly may take more time to clean on first use. On an even surface, lay a towel flat next to the cleaning well. The towel should be at least twice as big as the saw blade, so you can fold it over the saw blade and dry both sides at once.

CLEANING SAW BLADES 2.1 CLEANING SAW BLADES (CONT.) For table saws, raise the blade to its maximum height. Remove the arbor flange and nut from the saw. Using the Magnetic Handle from the large yellow lid, attach it to the blade as close to center as possible.

CLEANING ROUTER BITS 3.1 CLEANING ROUTER BITS (CONT.) While the router bits are soaking, attach the 1-11/16” (42mm) Router Bit Cleaning Disc and Mandrel to a rotary tool (a power drill will also work).
