Care of Blades
Blades can quickly become dull or lose teeth. If you
find yourself forcing the saw forward to cut instead
of just guiding it through the cut, chances are the
blade is dull or has missing teeth. Replace the blade
if any teeth are missing, loose, or dull.
Remember, blades are designed to cut, so handle
carefully.
Tool Lubrication
Your SKILSAW tool has been properly lubricated
and is ready to use. It is recommended that tools
with gears be regreased with a special gear lubri-
cant at every brush change.
Periodically lubricate moving parts with a silicone,
or light oil spray. Do not use grease because it tends
to attract and hold metal shavings.
Bearings
All bearings in this tools are lubricated with a suffi-
cient amount of high grade lubricant for the life of
the unit under normal operating conditions. No fur-
ther lubrication is required.
