Tips for best results
- Check that the blade diameter, arbor, and maximum RPM rating match your saw before you mount it, and never run a blade above its rated speed.
- Let the diamonds do the work. Steady, moderate pressure gives a straighter cut and longer blade life than forcing the blade through the material.
- Inspect the blade before each use for cracks, missing segments, or a warped core, and replace it if you see damage.
- Cutting masonry, concrete, and asphalt creates fine dust that can contain silica. Wear eye protection and a suitable respirator, and use dust control methods that fit your job site.
- Store blades flat or hanging in a dry place so the core stays true and the segments stay protected.
