Test cuts not enough.
When a new saw blade is used, it is liable to cut
obliquely and test cuts must be made.
If cut obliquely occurred, this saw blade will probably
make cut obliquely even so doing adjustment of up-
down oblique cutting.
So, change to a new saw blade and do test cuts surely
before using.
Cutting speed is not suitably.
Adjust cutting speed according to the workpiece.
Saw blade setting improper.
Securely set the saw blade into the blade guide
bearings.
Saw blade used caused oblique cut before,
or saw blade is worn.
Replace the saw blade.
T.P.I. not matching workpiece.
Select the saw blade having T.P.I which matches the
workpiece.
Blade guides or bearings worn.
Replace the bearings. (Replace on both sides at the
same time.)
Workpiece moved during cutting.
Tighten a rectangular workpiece so that it is as low as
possible.
Workpiece tightening improper.

Set the slide blade guide nearer to the workpiece.
Saw blade is not genuine.
Use the genuine saw blade.
Cutting time

Cutting speed is not suitably.
Adjust cutting speed according to the workpiece.
T.P.I. not matching workpiece.
Select the saw blade having T.P.I which matches the
workpiece.
Saw blade worn.
Replace the saw blade.
Saw blade
chipping.
Cutting load heavy.
Adjust the cutting speed according to the workpiece.
Workpiece moved during cutting.
Tighten the workpiece in contact with the V groove.
Saw blade hit the workpiece.
Put the saw blade onto the workpiece gently and
