WORKING HINTS FOR YOUR TOOL
WORKING HINTS FOR YOUR TOOL
• If your power tool becomes too hot, please run your circular saw no load for
2-3 minutes to cool the motor. Avoid prolonged usage at very low speeds.
• Protect saw blades against impact and shock. Cutting with extreme force can
significantly reduces the performance capability of the tool and reduces the
service life of the saw blade. Sawing performance and cutting quality depend
essentially on the condition and the tooth count of the saw blade. Therefore,
use only sharp saw blades that are suited for the material being cut.
• Choice of blades: 24 teeth for general work; approx. 44 teeth for finer cuts;
more than 44 teeth for very fine cuts into delicate surfaces. Use diamond
blades for tile, cement board, etc.
• Only use saw blades recommended.
The table below gives you advice on how to choose correct blade.
