4. Plywood requires a circular saw blade with a higher tooth count, as
the grain of each ply is at a different angle.
5. Each metal-cutting saw blade is designed to cut specific metals
and thicknesses. Check the manufacturer's specification to make
sure they match your needs. Thinner metals will require a high
tooth count, while thick metal requires a lower tooth count.
6. Plastics such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC), high density poly
ethylene (HDPE), polypropolyene and polyvinylidende fluoride
(PVDF) require a special saw blade designed to cut plastic. This
saw blade has a high tooth count and may have a coating that
prevents heat build-up to avoid melting or chipping the plastic
workpiece.
SAW CONFIGURATION SET-UP
WARNING! Unplug the mitre saw from the power supply
before making any adjustments involving the circular saw
disc to avoid a serious injury or amputation.
1.
Push the saw head back fully.
2. Tighten the set screw to lock the sliding rails in place if the
workpiece is not wider than 3-15/16 in. (100 mm). Otherwise
loosen the set screw to allow the saw head to slide during the cut.
3. Loosen the bevel lock knob and adjust the saw head to the desired
angle using the bevel gauge.
a. Use a 90° angle square or engineering square for a precision
vertical cut.
i.
Place the square's stock on the mitre table and the blade
against the saw blade, between the teeth.
ii.
Adjust the bevel angle until the saw blade is flush against
the square blade.
b. Use a sliding T-bevel square in conjunction with a protractor or
angle finder for a precision angle cut.
i.
Determine the angle.
ii.
Place the T-bevel square against the protractor or angle
finder and adjust the blade to match the angle. Keep in
mind which direction your saw head rotates.
