 - Please be advised this blade is not a skim-tooth cutting blade. For example, slightly trimming the side of a board without using the full kerf will cause the blade to flex. *This blade is not intended for full-depth scoring. Ensure the carbide tips cut completely through your material. *If using a sled, make sure the support collars do not rub on the underside of the sled. Due to its extremely thin kerf the saw blade will wobble and give an improper cut if it rubs on anything.

This warranty does not cover: a) abuse; b) misuse; c) normal wear and tear; d) improper application; e) failure to mount and secure product properly; f) improper table saw alignment; g) alterations made to the product by other than Total Saw Solutions.
