Grooving (fig. S)
Your saw is equipped with a grooving stop (17) and thumbscrew (59) to
allow for groove cutting.
• Flip the grooving stop (17) towards the front of the saw.
• Adjust the thumbscrew (59) to set the depth of the groove cut. It might
be necessary to release the lock nut (60) first.
• Place a piece of scrap material of approx. 5 cm between fence and
workpiece in order to perform a straight groove cut.
Dust extraction (fig. A2 & A3)
• Fit the dustbag (26) onto the dust spout (18).
• Whenever possible, connect a dust extraction device designed in
accordance with the relevant regulations regarding dust emission.
Saw blades
To obtain the stated cutting capacities, always use 305 mm saw blades
with 30 mm arbor holes.
Cutting non-ferrous metals
When cutting non-ferrous metals, the machine is only to be used in the
mitre saw mode. We recommend that bevel and compound mitre cuts
should not be performed in non-ferrous metals. The machine is not to be
used for cutting ferrous metals.
• Always use a material clamp when cutting non-ferrous metals.
Make sure that the workpiece is clamped securely.
• Only apply saw blades that are qualified for cutting non-ferrous metals.
• When using lubricants, only apply wax or separation spray. Do not use
emulsions or similar fluids.
• Connect an FI or DI switch between machine and mains to avoid
residual risks caused by metal swarf.
The FI switch should comply with the following specifications:
rated voltage 230 V
rated current 16 A
reaction time < 15 ms
fusing current 30 mA
The DI switch should comply with the following specifications:
DIN VDE 0661
rated voltage 230 V
rated current 16 A
fusing current 30 mA
all-pole cutoff L+N+PE
PE monitoring
low-voltage release
Optional accessories
Consult your dealer for further information on the appropriate accessories.
Transporting (fig. A1, A2 & B)
In order to conveniently carry the mitre saw, a carrying handle (10) has
been included on the top of the saw arm.
• To transport the saw, lower the head and depress the lock down pin (22).
• Lock the rail lock knob with the saw head in the front position, lock the
mitre arm in the utter right mitre angle, slide the fence (3 & 8)
completely inward and lock the bevel lever (20) with the saw head in
the vertical position to make the tool as compact as possible.
• Always use the carrying handle (10) or the hand indentations (24)
shown in fig. B to transport the saw.
Maintenance
Your DEWALT power tool has been designed to operate over a long
period of time with a minimum of maintenance. Continuous satisfactory
operation depends upon proper tool care and regular cleaning.
Cleaning
Keep the ventilation slots clear and regularly clean the housing with a soft
cloth.
• Regularly clean the table top.
• Regularly clean the dust collection system.
Avoid the use of cleaners or lubricants to maintain the tool.
In particular spray and aerosol cleaners may chemically attack
the plastic lower guard.
Lubrication
Your power tool requires no additional lubrication.
Protecting the environment
Separate collection. This product must not be disposed of with
normal household waste.
Should you find one day that your DEWALT product needs replacement,
or if it is of no further use to you, do not dispose of it with household
waste. Make this product available for separate collection.
Separate collection of used products and packaging allows
materials to be recycled and used again. Re-use of recycled
materials helps prevent environmental pollution and reduces
the demand for raw materials.
Local regulations may provide for separate collection of electrical products
from the household, at municipal waste sites or by the retailer when you
purchase a new product.
DEWALT provides a facility for the collection and recycling of DEWALT
products once they have reached the end of their working life. To take
