By cutting greenwood, resin or "pitch" will quickly build up on the teeth of a saw. The disc will heat up faster, not cut well, and be prone to warping. Take the blade off and clean the resin off while still soft, before much use heats and hardens it. Soak in mineral turps for several hours, then use a plastic implement like a plastic paint scraper or nylon scourer to rub off the gunge, and do not use metal scrapers or files.   kellyjones00 (593)
