Setting

Setting is an operation which provides the saw's cutting ability. It means bending the teeth in sequence left-right-straight or left-right (in case of the gang saws) in relation to the saw's body. The saw's teeth must be set symmetrically, otherwise operational problems may appear.

Setting should begin at 1/2 or 2/3 (depending on the kind of the saw and the height of the edge) height of the tooth measured from its tip. Recommended setting values are measured to the side from the saw's body on the sharpened saw.
