Have all the elements at hand : When you give maintenance to a tool make sure you have all the elements that you will use at hand, in the case of changing the blade for the saw you must have the new blade(previously unpacked) and the wrench which includes the saw to change the blade.
Recommended is not the right word, rather it is mandatory to disconnect the saw from the outlet, this will prevent injuries from accidental activation of the machine or an electric shock. This step is critical to avoid serious injury. When changing a circular saw blade, even an experienced craftsman can accidentally press the start button, and the health consequences will be dire. Therefore, when working with cutting electrical units, it is necessary to strictly observe all the rules of safe work. Obviously, this is a very important step because you do not want to accidentally pull the circular saw blade while you are handling it during the change! Here are the steps to change a circular saw blade: Step 1: Unplug the circular saw or remove the batteryĭisconnect the power supply if using a standard circular saw or remove the battery if using a cordless.

The dado cartridge is designed for use with 8” dado sets up to 13/16” wide.In this article we will teach you how to change the blade of a circular saw and the safety measures that you must follow to do so, then we leave you the steps to follow, remember that this article is not intended to replace the information in the instructions for the saw , it is recommended first read the instructions and then visually support yourself with what we present to you today. If you need to use a blade with a kerf thicker than 3/16”, use an 8” dado set with the optional SawStop 8” dado cartridge. Similarly, stacks of 2 or more 10” blades should never be used on your SawStop saw as the combined weight of the blades may be too heavy to stop quickly. Therefore, those blades should not be used because they may stop more slowly than standard blades in the event of an accident, resulting in a more serious injury. Blades with kerfs much thicker than 3/16” are heavier than standard 1/8” kerf blades.
As a result, those blades might deform and stop more slowly in the event of an accident, resulting in a more serious injury. Blades with kerfs much thinner than 3/32” should not be used because those blades might not be strong enough to withstand the force applied by the brake when it activates. The SawStop safety system is designed for use with standard 10” blades with kerfs from 3/32” to 3/16”. Do not use dado sets with solid-plate interior chippers or blades with molding heads, as neither brake cartridge is designed to stop those blade types. “Wobble” dado sets are not recommended, as they may not engage correctly with the dado brake cartridge. SawStop recommends only using 8” stacked dado sets, with a maximum thickness of 13/16”. Therefore, SawStop recommends using blades without depth-limiting shoulders. Further, blades with depth-limiting shoulders may take longer to stop in the event of an accident than standard blades, and you could receive a more serious injury. Those blades may be used on SawStop saws. However, most coated blades do not cover the blade teeth.

Steel blades and dado sets with a lacquer finish or other coating on the teeth should not be used as the coating may inhibit or slow the speed at which the safety system detects skin contact. They will prevent the SawStop safety system from applying the electrical signal on the blade that is required to sense skin contact. You should not use non-conductive blades or blades with non-conductive hubs or teeth (example: diamond blades). Any standard steel blade with steel or carbide teeth can be used.
