order should consist of the following:
saw diameter, tooth shape and number, hole diameter acc. to drawing, cutting direction, geometry of tool's cutting edge acc. to drawing, sort and condition of treated wood, circular saw's machine, longitudal, transversal and frontal cut
 
geometry of tool's cutting edge
 
Sharpening of circular saws
 
Circular saws are sharpened with grinding discs made of precious corundum, grain size 60-80, hardness M and N and with ceramic fastener. Grinding discs with fastener of synthetic gum are recommendable for especially fine grinding.
 
Cutting edge's geometry depends on tooth shape, cutting direction with reference to wood fibers, wood sort and condition.

Cutting speed
 
The most appropriate cutting speed is between 60 and 70 m/s. Critical cutting speeds which are between 50 and 55 m/s should particularly be avoided since during these speeds a great vibrations on saw sheets can occure. The biggest cutting speeds mentioned in table can be used only with new machines of massive construction, in other words at strengthened thicknesses of saw sheets.
 
Cutting speed is calculated acc. to following formula:
V =
D n
m/s
  D=saw sheet diameter in meters (m)
60
n=number of axis turning in one minute (o/min.)
 
Number of axis turning is calculated acc. to following formula:
   
n =
60 v
o/min
   
D
 
Number of saw axis turning in loaded condition n1 is smaller than the number of saw axis turning in unloaded condition for 2-6%. In table n1=n-4%
