Abrasive cut-off blade is used for cutting tough materials such as metal ad stones. In addition, you can opt for a combination of blades to cut through materials.

3. Now unplug your saw from an electrical outlet. Remove any coverings or guards that expose the blade. Then, look for a strong surface and place the saw on that surface. In addition, use bench clamps for holding it securely.

7. Finally, ensure that the saw has aluminum guard.
