Problem with my Wave
on: May 10, 2016, 07:50:10 PM
So I oiled the pivots on my Wave and now the serrated blade and saw open together. All the tools opened smoothly before and now it seems there is more friction on this layer of the tool. Any ideas how to fix this?

The oil may have unclogged some gunk that was stuck in there :think: Try flushing it out with more oil and keep working the tools :tu: Hope that fixes the problem :cheers:

I think your right. I sprayed some WD40 in there and then blew it out with compressed air. Now its mostly smooth again so I'll repeat the process. Thanks!
