Gears -Crosscut Saw Maintenance – Hanna Quigley

by Postmaster

To maintain a saw, oil it before and after training and competing. Before storing, brush off woodchips to reduce moisture and prevent rust buildup. Each time a saw cuts through wood, its teeth become dulled, reducing the saw’s effectiveness. Therefore, long-term maintenance also involves sharpening through stoning or refiling.
