      Michael ReedAug 1, 2025
      Several factors can cause your Clarke Saw blades to break: 1. **Incorrect tension:** Adjust the blade tension. 2. **Overworked blade:** Reduce the feed rate or replace the worn-out blade. 3. **Wrong blade:** Use narrow blades for thin wood and wider blades for thicker wood. 4. **Twisting blade:** Avoid applying side pressure on the blade while cutting.

      To address blade runout on your Clarke Saw: * Loosen the screws holding the blade holder to the rocker arms and adjust the position of the blade holders. Use a metal strip to verify alignment, then retighten the holder screws. * Increase the blade tension. * Renew the blade and correctly tension it if a dull blade is causing excessive force to be used on the workpiece.
