What causes the saw to cut slowly?
A dull blade, incorrect sawing technique, or cutting through materials beyond the saw's capacity can cause slow cutting. Ensure the blade is sharp and apply proper technique.
Troubleshooting
Saw cuts are not straight.
Ensure you are using proper sawing technique, maintaining a consistent angle, and guiding the blade along your marked line. Check that the blade is not bent.
Saw is difficult to push through the material.
Check the blade for damage or dullness. Sharpen or replace the blade if necessary. Ensure you are using the correct sawing technique.
Blade binds during cutting.
Make sure your cut line is straight and the material is well-supported. Try using a wedge to keep the cut open if binding occurs.
