Severe lacerations, amputation, or death
can occur if blade changing/adjustment is
attempted while saw is connected to power.
Always unplug saw before changing or mak-
ing any adjustments to blade or riving knife,
or performing any maintenance to saw that
would require touching blade.
Even worn saw blades can be sharp. To
avoid injury, wear protective gloves when
handling circular blades.

Changing Blades
The Model T33300 Track Saw is designed to be
used with wood and wood-based material. This
tool should not be used to cut ferrous metals
(steel, cast iron, etc.), glass, aluminum, plastics,
ceramics, tile, drywall, cementious backer board,
carpet, foam, or any type of food.
Using Saw
Always use sharp blades and select the correct
blade for the material being cut. The resulting cut
will be cleaner and there will be less stress on the
tool. Always inspect saw blades closely before
installation, and never use saw blades with bent
or missing teeth, or that appear damaged in any
way. The Model T33300 comes with a 48-tooth
carbide-tipped blade that will effectively handle
most wood and wood-like materials.
Blade Requirements:
•
160mm diameter
•
20mm round arbor bore
IMPORTANT: Blade teeth should never be thin-
ner than riving knife, or riving knife could get stuck
in kerf!
Blade Selection
When changing saw blades, always keep saw in
an upright position. Position saw along the edge
of a workbench or table, so that the blade can be
lowered safely down below the surface edge of
the workspace while the saw remains upright.
