Blades
« on: December 13, 2018, 09:08:55 am »
Having trouble getting the 5" plain spiral blades in the top and bottom clamps.  I am using a Porter Cable 18 in variable speed saw.  This is a brand new saw I just purchased and the directions on replacing blades are not done very well. When I do get them in they break within minutes. Help.

I find after securing one end of the blade and the other end does line up closely with the other clamp the blade has to bend in hockey stick type bend, this reduces blade life for me
