Posted By Chris Pope I would suggest you provide the same level of training you would normally, after all, despite your level of foresight you cannot guarantee that the individual will not come across some metal they wish to cut and they may use your saw with an abrasive wheel. In any case you need to be sure they understand the different types of diamond blade, how to sharpen them, how to secure the blade, protect hearing . vibration all the usual matters...they are just as good at cutting flesh as abrasive wheels if you put your foot or hand in the way !

Posted By Carolyn L HSG 17 provides good information on training in safe use of abrasive wheels and then for our inhouse training i include the importance of mounting a diamond blade the correct way i.e. the blade is only made to spin in one direction hence the directional arrow. I also cover the safe use and trasportation of the sthil saw itself and refuelling.
