revdave Posted June 18, 2013 Report Posted June 18, 2013 I have been having serious trouble holding my number 2 blades in my Dewalt saw. I tighten them and they slip out again and again and again. I've tried everything I can think of. Any ideas? Quote
Jim Finn Posted June 18, 2013 Report Posted June 18, 2013 Adjust the set screw in the clamp. That is what I had to do when I had a DeWalt. Some folks find that sanding the blades a bit on the ends to rough them up a bit also helps. Travis and Lucky2 2 Quote
WolfmoonCT Posted June 19, 2013 Report Posted June 19, 2013 When mine starts this, I back the set screw out (it's usually the bottom one all the time) then hit it with a little rub of some 220 grit and it's good to go Lucky2 1 Quote

amazingkevin Posted June 28, 2013 Report Posted June 28, 2013 #2 should be no problem slipping as the metal squeezes as you tighten the screws.you can feel t squish.to tight and you flaten it right out and theres no meat to hold it . Quote
