For faster cutting on workpieces more than
3
⁄4"
(19mm) thick, or when less precision is required
for an operation, pin-end blades are suggested.
This blade type is usually thicker than plain-end
blades and offers greater stability.
When using pin-end blades, the button head cap
screws on the upper and lower blade holders
should not be too tight or too loose. Proper blade
tension will keep the blade securely in place.
