TOOL ASSEMBLY
Selecting Blade
Select a blade appropriate for your applica-
tion. Refer to the “Accessories” section for
a list of blades to be used for the proper
applications of this tool.
Always use sharp blades. Dull blades tend
to overload the tool and increase the chance
of KICKBACK. Only use thin kerf blades with
a maximum safe operating speed greater
than the no load RPM marked on the tool's
nameplate. Read the blade manufacturer's
instructions before use. Do not use any type
of abrasive cut-off wheel or dry diamond
cutting blades. Use the correct blade type
for your application. Using the wrong blade
may result in reduced performance or dam-
age to the blade. Do not use blades that
are cracked or have broken teeth. Do not
sharpen ferrous metal cutting blades; see
the blade manufacturer's recommendations
regarding sharpening.
