worm drive saws

You can't be that dumb. It sepends on which way you are planning on moving the saw. IF you go forward, then the blade direction is the same.

Yes, like if you change from a left hand drive car to a right hand drive car, you have to reverse the wheels. Does the above sound right? No, and neither is that true for a left handed or right handed saw.

Well upstate Einstein, read this before you have your second sixpack

Only for those who couldnt install a saw blade without the arrow showing which way it goes. What do you do when the arrow wears off.....toss the blade,

Arrow? There's an arrow? I just always point the teeth up. Now I'm going to the shop and pull a couple of my saws and verify or debunk this "arrow" concept.

I always thought the arrow on a blade was supposed to be pointed up, like on shipping boxes, but some of them have the arrow going around in a circle, so then I thought that meant that the blade was supposed to be spinning when it was installed, so I turned on the saw and tried installing the blade. That didn't work out so well.

You have to put the wrench on the bolt *before* you turn it on.

i thought is was when the blade was worn down to the arrow it was replacement time.
