Abstract
An apparatus for setting teeth on a saw blade is disclosed. The apparatus has a control shaft which has setting cams for pivoting a tooth setting block. An indexing arm is caused to pivot by an indexing cam to cause a blade held by the apparatus to move through the apparatus in a timed stepwise fashion. Clamping jaws are movable relative to one another by a cam carried by the shaft to hold the blade during tooth setting and to release the blade for indexing through the apparatus.
