Troubleshooting

Blade is leaving tear-out or splintering on the cut surface.

Check the blade's installation, ensure the correct side is facing up, and use a slower feed rate. Consider the material being cut and the blade's suitability.

The saw blade is binding or struggling to cut.

Ensure the blade is compatible with the material. Check for any obstructions, and inspect the blade for damage.

Excessive vibration during cutting.

Make sure the blade is correctly installed, and the saw is stable. Check for any damage or looseness in the saw itself.
