Great video explaining lots of point for right and left bladed saws. Whilst the nuts will self tighten while running, when you stop the blade inertia will try to make it keep spinning, so a certain level of tightness required for the decel? (And beware any funny noises on decel?) I note no torque setting specified for the saw I've got. Also I guess litigation conscious manufacturers will supply the saw overtightened.
I've got the same milwaukee sidewinder which is fairly new so I still need to put it to the test but the blade nut was ridiculously tight when I got it so much that the metal key was flexing
Another thing people make the mistake of doing is using a standard hex key after misplacing the one that comes with the saw and still applying the same force with a longer hex key. Then when they go to take it off they end up not being able to in one way or another. There's an intentionality behind the length of those tools beyond their ability to be stored in a cavity on the tool.
The wrench of the rear handle Milwaukee saw has a little notch included for removing the diamond out of the new blades, assuming to not use pliers or screwdrivers. Well thought Milwaukee 👍
I purchased a brand new Diablo 71/4 24 tooth blade. First we know that the threads are reverse threaded and that the teeth have to point in the direction the motor turns. I went to put it on and thought my old age was catching up with me. Am I just stupid, I thought. Why is the printing on the back side of the blade? Maybe it's just Diablo that is stupid. I watched about three RUclipss on changing a circular saw blade. They all showed the blade just like on here, printing on the correct side. I had my wife come in and watch it with me, She came to the same conclusion, the printing is on the wrong side of the blade. I did an internet search " why is my Diablo blade's printing on the wrong side of the blade" No results for that search. I looked at RUclips again and found one that showed the man putting it on with the printing on the reverse side. He said that it's a common mistake that people assume the printing would be on the side that you would see when installed. So, W.T.F.?
I watched the whole thing thinking I would learn something. Like I did with the drill bit episode. Though I didn't learn anything I feel it wasn't time wasted.
@@Protoolreviews Thanks for reply and I can see your point, and it is good, as there is a lot of misinformation out there as you know. I ALWAYS look forward to videos from you fellas, and forgive my snarky comment earlier. 🤗 Happy and Prosperous New Year to you all. 👍👍👍✌🏻😁🇺🇸
Thank you so much! Very easy to follow!
