• cutting plywood, which is very abrasive;
• when sawing wood which is thicker than the blade stroke;
• when sawing hardwood;
• when side pressure is placed on the blade
• The saw blade saws only during the downward stroke.
• Using both hands, slowly and with minimum pressure push the workpiece across the table
towards the saw blade. This will prevent the blade from breaking or twisting.
• For optimal results, the saw blade must be sharp.
• Use the proper saw blade. The selection of the saw-blade depends on the thickness of the
wood and the cut you would like to achieve. Keep the following in mind as a general rule:
The thinner and harder the wood, the finer the teeth of the saw blade. Use a small blade to
saw sharp curves.
