4.2 Blade Sharpening Tips
This section covers some of the common problem areas of blade sharpening.
Before removing from the saw, clean the blade by running the waterlube on the blade
for 15 seconds. This will remove most of the sap buildup that would otherwise have to be
scraped off when it dries. Wipe with a clean dry rag.
Make sure the flow of oil through the oiler assembly is strong.
Sharpen the blade when it first shows signs of dullness. If the blade is extremely dull, due
to hitting a rock or some form of foreign matter, sharpen the blade twice lightly, instead of
trying to remove too much in one grind. Grinding too much material at once may cause
the circuit breaker in the control box to kick out. If this happens, wait 15 seconds. Then
turn it on (push circuit breaker down).
