Title: Spiral Blade tension
Post by: JT on May 12, 2010, 10:32:28 am

Is there a trick to get good tension on the spiral blades? I seem to have trouble keeping a spiral blade from pulling loose easily. I am using a Dewalt 788.

I don't have a Dewalt, but in my opinion for any saw, it's trial and error.  You'll go through a few blades trying, but you will find the right tension.
