6. MINIMUM ROOM SPACE FOR MACHINE OPERATION
7. MAKE PROPER TOOTH SELECTION
For maximum cutting efficiency and lowest cost per cut, it
is important to select the blade with the right number of
teeth per inch (TPI) for the material being cut. The
material size and shape dictate tooth selection.
You need to consider:
1.The width of the cut. That is, the distance in the cut that
each tooth must travel from the point it
enters the workpiece until it leaves the workpiece, and
2.The shape of the workpiece.
zSquares, Rectangles, Flats (Symbol : ■)
Locate the width of cut on the chart. (Inches on the outer
circle and millimeters on the inner circle.) Select the tooth
pitch
TOOTH SELECTION
on the ring marked with the square shape which aligns
with the width of cut.
EXAMPLE: 6" (150mm) square, use a 2/3 Vari-Tooth.
zRound Sollds (Symbol : ●)
Locate the diameter of your workpiece on the chart.
Select the tooth pitch on the ring marked with the round
shape which aligns with the size of stock you are cutting.
EXAMPLE: 4" (100mm) round, use a 3/4 Vari-Tooth.
zTubing, Pipe, Structurals( Symbol : O H ^ )
Determine the average width of cut by dividing the area
of the workpiece by the distance the saw blade must
travel to finish the cut. Locate the average width of cut on
the chart. Select the tooth Ditch on the ring marked with
the tubing and structural shape which aligns with the
average width you are cutting.
EXAMPLE: 4"(100mm) outside diameter, 3"(75mm)
inside diameter tubing.

need for adjustment should rarely occur when the saw is
used properly. If the guides do get out of adjustment
though, it is extremely important to readjust immediately.
If improper adjustment in maintained, the blade will not
cut straight, and if the situation is not corrected it will
cause serious blade damage. Because guide adjustment
is a critical factor in the performance of your saw, it is
always best to try a new blade to see if this will correct
poor cutting before beginning to adjust. If a blade
becomes dull on one side sooner than the other, for
example, it will begin cutting crooked. A blade change will
correct this problem the guide adjustment will not. If a
new blade does not correct the problem, check the blade
guides for proper spacing.
NOTE: There should be from 000 (just touching) 001
clearance between the blade and guide bearings to
obtain this clearance adjust as follows:
1. The inner guide bearing is fixed and cannot be
