What to do if material pinches blade when ripping with Clarke Saw?

  Timothy TurnerAug 20, 2025
  If the material pinches the blade when ripping with your Clarke Saw, it could be due to the rip fence not being aligned with the blade; in this case, check and adjust the rip fence. Alternatively, warped wood with an edge that is not straight against the fence can also cause this issue; select another piece of wood.

  If your Clarke Saw does not make accurate 45O and 90O Rip Cuts, it could be because the positive stop is not adjusted. Check the blade with a square and correctly adjust the positive stop. It could also be that the tilt angle pointer is not set accurately; check the blade with a square and adjust the pointer to zero.

Why does my Clarke Saw vibrate?

  gillcaitlinSep 3, 2025
  If your Clarke Saw vibrates, it might be due to a few reasons. First, ensure the saw is securely mounted to the stand or workbench by tightening all mounting hardware. If the stand or bench is on an uneven floor, reposition it on a flat, level surface and fasten it to the floor if necessary. Finally, a damaged saw blade can also cause vibration, so consider replacing the blade.
