If it is the old "green treated" you should be fine.

I cut a piece of scrap after and vacuum the sawdust out of the cabinet.

The newest "treated" stuff seems extremely corrosive. I cut it outside
with a sawz-all . Wipe down the saw and clean the blade in paint
thinner.


I can't argue with the corrosive nature of the copper compounds they use in
PT these days, but I can say I have never cleaned my blades after cutting
the stuff. I never gave it a thought. I've cut hundreds of board feet of
the newer stuff if not more, with my circular saw and there's no visible
signs of corrosion or other detrimental effect to the blade. Not to suggest
you shouldn't clean your blade... just relaying my experience.
