L See page 25 for des gnated b ades and recommended uses. SELECTING THE BLADE _-o_the best blade pedcrmance and longer blade life, ALWAYS select the proper blade for your sawing apptcation, There are many ty£es of 1i2-in. universal shank blades available for your reciprocating saw: Blades far cutting at tybes of wood, nail-embedded wood, woodbase building materials, non-ferrous and ferrous metal, plastics and fiberglass. 12 [ [ J SELECTING THE BLADE cont. are also =_lai_bie, ALWAYS choose a blade ien§th long enough to extend beyond the shoe and your workplace, througho_ the cutting stroke (see page 18). SAW BLADES All saw blades need to be kept clean, sharp and properly set in order to cut efficiently. Using a d_l( blade hlaces a heavy load on the saw and increases the d_r_ger of counter force (a jumping or kickback action). Keep extra blades on hand. so sharp blades are always available. Gum and wood pitch hardened on the blade slows the saw down. _Jsegum and pitcl] remover, hot water or kerosene to remove them. DO NOT use gasoline.
