WARNING
thin kerf saw blades. The kerf of the blade
must be wider than 0.075" (1.9mm). Extra thin
kerf saw blades less than 0.075" (1.9mm) may
cause the work piece to bind against the riving
knife / splitter during cutting. It is recommended
that the kerf of the replacement blade used on
this saw be 0.075" (1.9mm) or more (Fig. 7a).
WARNING
"dampeners," "stabilizers," or "stiffening
collars" on both sides of a replacement
blade. These are metal plates positioned
against the sides of the blade to reduce
deflection that may occur when using thin saw
blades. Use of these devices on both sides will
prevent the blade from being properly aligned
with the riving knife, which may bind the work
piece during cutting. One "stabilizer" plate may
be placed only against the outside of a thin
replacement blade. These plates are not
required with the supplied blade.
