Selecting the type of saw blade and its width, depends
on the material to be cut and the type of cut:
• Narrow saw blades are designed for curved and
circular cuts, whereas wide saw blades are desig-
ned for straight cuts.
• A fine-toothed saw blade is required for hard
wood, whereas a coarse-toothed saw blade is re-
quired for soft wood.
The gap between the individual teeth should be large
enough to carry the material chips and to throw them
away. If the gap is too small, the blade will overheat
and rupture.
Do not use kinked, ruptured or bent saw blades.
For soft wood, the set should be a max. of twice the
thickness of the saw blade and for hard wood, a max. of
1.5 times the thickness of the saw blade.
Change blunt blades and have them sharpened by a
specialist workshop or purchase a new saw blade.
It is recommended to use only high quality saw blades.
