Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Spear & Jackson Traditional Professional Tenon Saw requires no assembly. Ensure the blade is securely attached to the brass spine before first use.
Compatibility: This saw is designed for general woodworking and is compatible with most types of timber. It is most effective on wood pieces where precise joint cutting is needed.
Care:
- Cleaning: After each use, wipe the blade clean with a dry cloth to remove sawdust and resin. For stubborn residue, a lightly oiled cloth can be used, followed by a dry wipe.
- Sharpening: The universal teeth are designed to be resharpened. The wooden handle can be unscrewed to allow easier access to the blade for sharpening with a suitable file or sharpening stone. Sharpen the teeth following their original angle to maintain cutting efficiency.
- Storage: Store the saw in a dry environment to prevent rust. Hanging it or storing it in a blade guard is recommended to protect both the teeth and the user.
