Saw safety

  • Use guard with saws and diamond cup wheels.
  • Always work with handle on grinder.
  • Check blade for cracks before use.
  • Don’t stand in line with blade during use.
  • Don’t force blade into material, allow it to cut at own speed.
  • Avoid long continuous cuts, allow blade to cool.  Chattering in cut indicates overheating.
  • Cut at right angle to surface, being careful not to twist blade in cut.  Cut in straight line
  • Cut so direction of blade turn is into cut.
  • Do not plane with blades.  Flexing of blade can stress & break core.
