CARE OF BLADES
When cleaning gum and wood pitch from blade, unplug the rotary tool and remove the blade. Remember, blades are designed to cut, so handle carefully. Wipe the blade with kerosene or similar solvent to remove the gum and pitch.
A dull or damaged blade slows the speed of cutting and places a heavier load on your rotary tool, and can cause KICKBACK. Keep extra blades on hand so you always have sharp, efficient blades ready to replace a dull or damaged one.
Use only Dremel Saw Blades with your saw attachment.
Blades become dull even from cutting regular lumber. If you find yourself forcing the rotary tool forward to cut instead of just guiding it through the cut, chances are the blade is dull or coated with wood pitch.
