Blade Selection

When selecting blades, keep in mind that the Model G0622 accepts only 12" x 0.028 x 6412" blades.

When deciding which type of blade to use, con- sider the type and thickness of material being cut. Refer to Figure 27 for recommended blade tooth (TPI) and speed (FPM) based on the workpiece material. The blade must have at least three teeth in contact with the workpiece.

Example: 24 TPI blade minimum workpiece thick- ness is .125" or (3/TPI). The teeth can strip off the blade if fewer than three teeth are in contact with the material.
