Simple tips for cleaning and maintaining your saw blades
If you regularly work with wood and board materials, it’s good practice to frequently clean your blades, so the resin or pitch doesn't develop too much. An excessive build-up will reduce both the quality of cut as well as the life of the blade. For the sake of a few minutes every now and then, regular maintenance or cleaning will ensure optimum performance and maximum life.
How to clean your saw blades
★ Collect all the tools required, such as a cleaning rag, an old toothbrush, a suitable degreaser and a drying cloth.
★ If your blade is really dirty, brush or wipe down the blade to remove large areas of gunk, grease, dust, or wood chippings.
★ Spray liberally with a degreasing solution and allow it to sit on the blade to penetrate the dirt for around 20 minutes. Avoid allowing the solution to evaporate by periodically giving the blade another spray.
★ Agitate with a brush if there are any areas which need special attention.
★ Rinse the blade under water with either running water or in a bucket or washing up bowl.
★ Thoroughly dry your blade with the drying cloth.
★ Apply lubricant to the whole blade.
How do you lubricate a saw blade after cleaning?
After cleaning your blades, it’s important to properly rinse and completely dry them off. It's highly likely that the cleaning process will have removed any lubrication from the blade's surface, so it's vital to re-lubricate after cleaning. This will enable the blade to produce cleaner cuts during use, and also protect the metal from potential rust build-up.
