revdave Posted June 18, 2013 Report Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Finn Posted June 18, 2013 Report Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WolfmoonCT Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichieB Posted June 20, 2013 Report Share Posted June 20, 2013 Sanding the ends with emery cloth does the trick for me. Richie Lucky2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amazingkevin Posted June 28, 2013 Report Share 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 .
