6.3 Selecting the saw blade
During sawing with the metal-cutting circular saw, pay at-
tention to the choice of the correct saw blade, or the cor-
rect tooth form and set of the saw blade.
If the TPI value is too small and the cutting length is too
long, the cut material cannot be easily taken up by the
gullet.
If the TPI value is too high, the saw teeth starts to chop;
this can lead to teeth breaking out.
