Hi,

Quick question, do I need an abrasive wheels ticket to change the blade of a cold cut chopsaw?

Many thanks,

MECH

Hi MECH

Quick answer - No

Chop Saws have a toothed blade rather than an abrasive wheel, so no AW ticket is required.

However, still come under PUWER, so would need to be "competent" in changing a saw blade :-)

Hope this helps

Elfin
