2) Electrical Safety
a ) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never
modify the plug in any way. Do not use any
adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power
tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will
reduce risk of electricshock.
b ) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded
surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed orgrounded.
c ) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase
the risk of electricshock.
d ) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for
carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase
the risk of electricshock.
e ) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an
extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of
a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electricshock.
f ) If operating a power tool in a damp location
is unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit
interrupter (GFCI) protected supply. Use of a GFCI
reduces the risk of electricshock.
3) Personal Safety

Safety Instructions for All Saws
CuttingProcedures
a ) DANGER: Keep hands away from cutting
area and the blade. Keep your second hand on
auxiliary handle, or motor housing. If both hands
are holding the saw, they cannot be cut by theblade.
b ) Do not reach underneath the workpiece. The
guard cannot protect you from the blade below
theworkpiece.
c ) Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness of the
workpiece. Less than a full tooth of the blade teeth
should be visible below theworkpiece.
d ) Never hold the workpiece in your hands or across
your leg while cutting. Secure the workpiece to a
stable platform. It is important to support the work
properly to minimize body exposure, blade binding, or
loss ofcontrol.
e ) Hold the power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces, when performing an operation where
the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring.
Contact with a "live" wire will also make exposed
metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give the
operator an electricshock.
f ) When ripping, always use a rip fence or straight
edge guide. This improves the accuracy of cut and
reduces the chance of bladebinding.
g ) Always use blades with correct size and shape
(diamond versus round) of arbor holes. Blades that
d ) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected
from the battery; avoid contact. If contact
accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid
contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help.
Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation
orburns.
e ) Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged
or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may
exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in fire,
explosion or risk ofinjury.
f ) Do not expose a battery pack or tool to
fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to
fire or temperature above 265°F (130°C) may
causeexplosion.
g ) Follow all charging instructions and do not
charge the battery pack or tool outside the
temperature range specified in the instructions.
Charging improperly or at temperatures outside the
specified range may damage the battery and increase
the risk offire.
6) Service
a ) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool
ismaintained.
b ) Never service damaged battery packs. Service
of battery packs should only be performed by the
manufacturer or authorized serviceproviders.
h ) Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of
tools allow you to become complacent and ignore
tool safety principles. A careless action can cause
severe injury within a fraction of asecond.
4) Power Tool Use and Care
a ) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power
tool for your application. The correct power tool
will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it
wasdesigned.
b ) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not
turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must
berepaired.
c ) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/
or remove the battery pack, if detachable, from
the power tool before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting
the power toolaccidentally.
d ) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children
and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the
power tool or these instructions to operate the
power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrainedusers.
e ) Maintain power tools and accessories. Check
for misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condition
that may affect the power tool’s operation. If
damaged, have the power tool repaired before
use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained
powertools.
f ) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier tocontrol.
g ) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc.
in accordance with these instructions, taking
into account the working conditions and the
work to be performed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended could result in
a hazardoussituation.
h ) Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean
and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and
grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and
control of the tool in unexpectedsituations.
5) Battery Tool Use and Care
a ) Recharge only with the charger specified by the
manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type
of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with
another batterypack.
b ) Use power tools only with specifically designated
battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may
create a risk of injury andfire.
c ) When battery pack is not in use, keep it away
from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins,
keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects,
that can make a connection from one terminal to
another. Shorting the battery terminals together may
cause burns or afire.

Additional Safety Information
WARNING:Never modify the power tool or any part of
it. Damage or personal injury couldresult.
WARNING:ALWAYS use safety glasses. Everyday
eyeglasses are NOT safety glasses. Also use face or
Additional Specific Safety Instructions for
Circular Saws
WARNING: Do not use abrasive wheels orblades.
WARNING: Do not use water feedattachments.
Use clamps or another practical way to secure and
support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding
the work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable
and may lead to loss ofcontrol.
Keep your body positioned to either side of the
blade, but not in line with the saw blade. KICKBACK
could cause the saw to jump backwards (see Causes and
Operator Prevention of Kickback andKICKBACK).
Air vents often cover moving parts and should be
avoided. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught
in movingparts.
Avoid cutting nails. Inspect for and remove all nails from
lumber beforecutting.
The protruding blade may cut objects that can
causekickback.
Lower Guard Function Safety
Instructions
a ) Check the lower guard for proper closing before
each use. Do not operate the saw if lower guard
does not move freely and close instantly. Never
clamp or tie the lower guard into the open
position. If saw is accidentally dropped, lower
guard may be bent. Raise the lower guard with the
retracting handle and make sure it moves freely and
does not touch the blade or any other part, in all angles
and depths ofcut.
b ) Check the operation of the lower guard spring.
If the guard and the spring are not operating
properly, they must be serviced before use. Lower
guard may operate sluggishly due to damaged parts,
gummy deposits, or a build‑up ofdebris.
c ) The lower guard may be retracted manually
only for special cuts such as “plunge cuts” and
compound cuts.” Raise the lower guard by
the retracting handle and as soon as blade
enters the material, the lower guard must be
released. For all other sawing, the lower guard should
operateautomatically.
d ) Always observe that the lower guard is covering
the blade before placing saw down on bench or
floor. An unprotected, coasting blade will cause
the saw to walk backwards, cutting whatever is in
its path. Be aware of the time it takes for the blade to
stop after switch isreleased.
Further Safety Instructions for All Saws
Causes and Operator Prevention
ofKickback:
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched, bound or
misaligned saw blade, causing an uncontrolled saw to lift
up and out of the workpiece toward the operator;
When the blade is pinched or bound tightly by the kerf
closing down, the blade stalls and the motor reaction drives
the unit rapidly back toward the operator;
If the blade becomes twisted or misaligned in the cut, the
teeth at the back edge of the blade can dig into the top
surface of the wood causing the blade to climb out of the
kerf and jump back toward theoperator.
Kickback is the result of saw misuse and/or incorrect operating
procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking proper
precautions as given below:
a ) Maintain a firm grip with both hands on the saw
and position your arms to resist kickback forces.
Position your body to either side of the blade,
but not in line with the blade. Kickback could cause
the saw to jump backwards, but kickback forces can
be controlled by the operator, if proper precautions
aretaken.
b ) When blade is binding, or when interrupting a
cut for any reason, release the trigger and hold
the saw motionless in the material until the
blade comes to a complete stop. Never attempt
to remove the saw from the work or pull the saw
backward while the blade is in motion or kickback
may occur. Investigate and take corrective actions to
eliminate the cause of bladebinding.
c ) When restarting a saw in the workpiece, center
the saw blade in the kerf and check that saw teeth
are not engaged into the material. If a saw blade
binds, it may walk up or kickback from the workpiece
as the saw isrestarted.
d ) Support large panels to minimize the risk of blade
pinching and kickback. Large panels tend to sag
under their own weight. Supports must be placed
under the panel on both sides, near the line of cut and
near the edge of thepanel.
e ) Do not use dull or damaged blades. Unsharpened
or improperly set blades produce narrow kerf causing
excessive friction, blade binding andkickback.
f ) Blade depth and bevel adjusting locking levers
must be tight and secure before making the cut.
If blade adjustment shifts while cutting, it may cause
binding andkickback.
g ) Use extra caution when making a “plunge
cut” into existing walls or other blind areas.
do not match the mounting hardware of the saw will
run off‑center, causing loss ofcontrol.
h ) Never use damaged or incorrect blade washers
or bolt. The blade washers and bolt were specially
designed for your saw, for optimum performance and
safety ofoperation.

Wall Mounting
Some
DeWALT
chargers are designed to be wall mountable
or to sit upright on a table or work surface. If wall mounting,
locate the charger within reach of an electrical outlet, and
away from a corner or other obstructions which may impede
air flow. Use the back of the charger as a template for the
location of the mounting screws on the wall. Mount the
charger securely using drywall screws (purchased separately)
Hot/Cold Pack Delay
When the charger detects a battery pack that is too hot
or too cold, it automatically starts a Hot/Cold Pack Delay,
suspending charging until the battery pack has reached an
appropriate temperature. The charger then automatically
switches to the pack charging mode. This feature ensures
maximum battery packlife.
A cold battery pack may charge at a slower rate than a warm
batterypack.
The hot/cold pack delay will be indicated by the red light
continuing to blink but with the yellow light continuously
ON. Once the battery pack has reached an appropriate
temperature, the yellow light will turn OFF and the charger
will resume the chargingprocedure.
DCB118 and DCB1112 Chargers
The DCB118 and DCB1112 chargers are equipped with
an internal fan designed to cool the battery pack. The fan
will turn on automatically when the battery pack needs to
becooled.
Electronic Protection System
Li-Ion tools are designed with an Electronic Protection
System that will protect the battery pack against overloading,
overheating or deep discharge. The tool will automatically
turn off and the battery pack will need to berecharged.
Important Charging Notes
1. The charger and battery pack may become warm to the
touch while charging. This is a normal condition, and
does not indicate a problem. To facilitate the cooling of
the battery pack after use, avoid placing the charger or
battery pack in a warm environment such as in a metal
shed or an uninsulatedtrailer.
2. If the battery pack does not charge properly:
a. Check operation of receptacle by plugging in a lamp
or other appliance;
b. Check to see if receptacle is connected to a light
switch which turns power off when you turn out
the lights;
c. If charging problems persist, take the tool, battery
pack and charger to your local servicecenter.
3. You may charge a partially used pack whenever you
desire with no adverse effect on the batterypack.
Charger Cleaning Instructions

Lower Blade Guard
WARNING: The lower blade guard is a safety
feature which reduces the risk of serious personal
injury. Never use the saw if the lower blade
guard is missing, damaged, misassembled
or not working properly. Do not rely on the
lower blade guard to protect you under all
circumstances. Your safety depends on following
all warnings and precautions as well as proper
operation of the saw. Check lower blade guard
you when properly installed. When retracting the lower
blade guard to install the blade, check the condition

can dig into the top surface of the wood causing the blade to
climb out of the kerf and jump back toward theoperator.
Kickback is more likely to occur when any of the following
conditionsexists.
1. IMPROPER WORKPIECE SUPPORT
a. Sagging or improper lifting of the cut off piece can
cause pinching of the blade and lead tokickback.
b. Cutting through material supported at the outer ends
only can cause kickback. As the material weakens it
sags, closing down the kerf and pinching theblade.
c. Cutting off a cantilevered or overhanging piece of
material from the bottom up in a vertical direction
can cause kickback. The falling cut off piece can pinch
theblade.
d. Cutting off long narrow strips (as in ripping) can cause
kickback. The cut off strip can sag or twist closing the
kerf and pinching theblade.
e. Snagging the lower guard on a surface below the
material being cut momentarily reduces operator
control. The saw can lift partially out of the cut
increasing the chance of bladetwist.
2. IMPROPER DEPTH OF CUT SETTING ON SAW
a. To make the most efficient cut, the blade should
protrude only far enough to expose one-half of a
tooth. This allows the shoe to support the blade and
minimizes twisting and pinching in the material. See
the section titled Cutting DepthAdjustment.
3. BLADE TWISTING MISALIGNMENT IN CUT
a. Pushing harder to cut through a knot, a nail or a hard
grain area can cause the blade totwist.
b. Trying to turn the saw in the cut (trying to get back on
the marked line) can cause bladetwist.
c. Overreaching or operating the saw with poor body
control (out of balance), can result in twisting
theblade.
d. Changing hand grip or body position while cutting
can result in bladetwist.
e. Backing up the saw to clear blade can lead totwist.
4. MATERIALS THAT REQUIRE EXTRA ATTENTION
a. Wet lumber
b. Green lumber (material freshly cut or not kiln dried)
c. Pressure treated lumber (material treated with
preservatives or anti-rot chemicals)
5. USE OF DULL OR DIRTY BLADES
a. Dull blades cause increased loading of the saw. To
compensate, an operator will usually push harder
which further loads the unit and promotes twisting
of the blade in the kerf. Worn blades may also have
insufficient body clearance which increases the
chance of binding and increasedloading.
6. LIFTING THE SAW WHEN MAKING A BEVEL CUT
a. Bevel cuts require special operator attention to proper
cutting techniques – especially guidance of the
saw. Both blade angle to the shoe and greater blade
surface in the material increase the chance for binding
and misalignment (twist) tooccur.
Kickback
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched, bound or
misaligned saw blade, causing an uncontrolled saw to lift
up and out of the workpiece toward the operator. When the
blade is pinched or bound tightly by the kerf closing down,
the blade stalls and the motor reaction drives the unit rapidly
back toward the operator. If the blade becomes twisted or
misaligned in the cut, the teeth at the back edge of the blade
Blades
CAUTION: Burn hazard. Do not touch the the blade
immediately after use. Contact with the blade may
result in personal injury.
WARNING: To minimize the risk of eye injury, always
use eye protection. Carbide is a hard but brittle
material. Foreign objects in the workpiece such as wire
or nails can cause tips to crack or break. Only operate
saw when proper saw blade guard is in place. Mount
blade securely in proper rotation before using, and
always use a clean, sharp blade.
WARNING: Do not cut ferrous and or non‑ferrous
metals (steel), masonry, glass, masonry‑type planking,
cement board or tile with this saw.
Do not use abrasive wheels or blades. A dull blade will cause
slow inefficient cutting, overload on the saw motor, excessive
splintering, and could increase the possibility of kickback.
Please refer to the table below to determine the correct size
replacement blade for your model saw.

for proper closing before each use as outlined
in Further Safety Instructions for All Saws.
If the lower blade guard is missing or not
working properly, have the saw serviced before
using. To assure product safety and reliability,
repair, maintenance and adjustment should be
performed by an authorized service center or
other qualified service organization, always using
identical replacementparts.
Checking the Lower Guard(Fig.A)
1. Turn tool off and disconnect from powersupply.
2. Rotate the lower blade guard retracting lever6 from the
fully closed position to the fully openposition.
3. Release the lever and observe the guard7 return to the
fully closedposition.
The tool should be serviced by a qualified service center if it:
fails to return to the fully closed position,
moves intermittently or slowly, or
contacts the blade or any part of the tool in all angles
and depth ofcut.

ENGLISH
Cutting (Fig. L, M)
Place the wider portion of the saw shoe on that part of the
workpiece which is solidly supported, not on the section
that will fall off when the cut is made. As an example,
FigureL illustrates the RIGHT way to cut off the end of a
board. Always clamp work. Don’t try to hold short pieces by
hand! (FigureM) Remember to support cantilevered and
overhanging material. Use caution when sawing material
frombelow.
Be sure saw is up to full speed before blade contacts material
to be cut. Starting saw with blade against material to be
cut or pushed forward into kerf can result in kickback. Push
the saw forward at a speed which allows the blade to cut
withoutlaboring.
Hardness and toughness can vary even in the same piece of
material, and knotty or damp sections can put a heavy load
on the saw. When this happens, push the saw more slowly,
but hard enough to keep working without much decrease
in speed. Forcing the saw can cause rough cuts, inaccuracy,
kickback, and over-heating of themotor.
Should your cut begin to go off the line, don’t try to force
it back on. Release the trigger switch and allow blade to
come to a complete stop. Then you can withdraw the saw,
sight anew, and start a new cut slightly inside the wrong
one. Withdraw the saw if you must shift the cut. Forcing
a correction inside the cut can stall the saw and lead
tokickback.
IF SAW STALLS, RELEASE THE TRIGGER SWITCH AND BACK THE
SAW UNTIL IT IS LOOSE. BE SURE BLADE IS STRAIGHT IN THE
CUT AND CLEAR OF THE CUTTING EDGE BEFORERESTARTING.
As you finish a cut, release the trigger switch and allow the
blade to stop before lifting the saw from the work. As you
lift the saw, the spring-tensioned lower blade guard will
automatically close under the blade. Remember the blade
is exposed until this occurs. Never reach under the work for
any reason. When you have to retract the lower blade guard
Workpiece Support (Fig.LO, Q)
WARNING: It is important to support the work
properly and to hold the saw firmly to prevent loss of
control which could cause personal injury. FigureL, Q
illustrates proper hand support of the saw. Maintain a
firm grip with both hands on the saw and position your
body and arm to allow you to resist kickback if it occurs.
ALWAYS TURN OFF TOOL AND REMOVE BATTERY
BEFORE MAKING ANY ADJUSTMENTS!
Figure L shows proper sawing position. Note that hands are
kept away from cutting area. To avoid kickback, DO support
board or panel NEAR the cut (Fig.N). DON’T support board or
panel away from the cut (Fig.O).
Place the work with its good side – the one on which
appearance is most important – down. The saw cuts upward,
so any splintering will be on the work face that is up when
you cutit.
blade fall to the right of the indicator. Guide along the
penciled cutting line so that the kerf falls into the waste or
surplusmaterial.
Kerf Indicator (Fig.K)
The front of the saw shoe has a kerf indicator9 for vertical
and bevel cutting. This indicator enables you to guide the
saw along cutting lines penciled on the material being cut.
The kerf indicator lines up with the left (inner) side of the
saw blade, which makes the slot or “kerf cut by the moving
Shoe Adjustment for 90°Cuts (Fig.J)
If Additional Adjustment is Needed:
1. Adjust the saw to 0°bevel.
2. Retract the lower blade guard. Place the saw on
bladeside.
3. Loosen bevel adjustment knob10. Place a square
against the blade and shoe to adjust the 90°setting.
4. Turn the calibration screw19 so that the shoe will stop
at the properangle.
5. Confirm the accuracy of the setting by checking the
squareness of an actual cut on a scrap piece ofmaterial.
Bevel Angle Adjustment (Fig.I)
The full range of the bevel adjustment is from 0° to 50°. The
quadrant is graduated in increments of 1°. On the front of
the saw is a bevel angle adjustment mechanism consisting of
a calibrated quadrant and a bevel adjustment knob10.
To Set the Saw for a Bevel Cut
1. Loosen (counterclockwise) the bevel adjustment
knob10 and tilt shoe to the desired angle by aligning
the pointer with the desired anglemark.
2. Retighten knob firmly (clockwise).
Cutting Depth Adjustment (Fig.H, I)
1. Hold the saw firmly and loosen (clockwise) the depth
adjustment knob4 and move shoe to obtain the desired
depth ofcut.
2. Make sure the depth adjustment knob has been
retightened (counterclockwise) before operatingsaw.
For the most efficient cutting action, set the depth
adjustment so that one-half tooth of the blade will project
below the material to be cut. This distance is from the tip of
the tooth to the bottom of the gullet in front of it. This keeps
blade friction at a minimum, removes sawdust from the cut,
results in cooler, faster sawing and reduces the chance of
kickback. A method for checking for correct cutting depth
is shown in FigureI. Lay a piece of the material you plan to
cut along the side of the blade, as shown, and observe how
much tooth projects beyond thematerial.
7. RESTARTING A CUT WITH THE BLADE TEETH
JAMMED AGAINST THE MATERIAL
a. The saw should be brought up to full operating speed
before starting a cut or restarting a cut after the unit
has been stopped with the blade in the kerf. Failure to
do so can cause stalling andkickback.
Any other conditions which could result in pinching, binding,
twisting, or misalignment of the blade could cause kickback.
Refer to the sections Further Safety Instructions for All
Saws and Blades for procedures and techniques that will
minimize the occurrence ofkickback.

deux bornes. Le court‑circuit des bornes du bloc‑piles
risque de provoquer des brûlures ou unincendie.
d ) En cas d’utilisation abusive, le liquide peut gicler
hors du bloc‑piles; éviter tout contact avec ce
liquide. Si un contact accidentel se produit, laver
à grande eau. Si le liquide entre en contact avec
les yeux, obtenir également des soins médicaux.
Le liquide qui gicle hors du bloc‑piles peut provoquer
des irritations ou desbrûlures.
e ) Ne pas utiliser de bloc‑piles ou outil qui a été
endommagé ou modifié. Les unités endommagées
ou modifiées peuvent avoir une réaction imprévisible
résultant en un incendie, une explosion ou un potentiel
deblessure.
f ) Ne pas exposer de bloc‑piles ou l’outil aux
flammes ou à des températures excessives.
Lexposition aux flammes ou à une température
au‑dessus de 129°C (265°F) pourrait causer
uneexplosion.
antidérapantes, un casque de sécurité ou des
protecteurs auditifs lorsque la situation le requiert
réduira les risques de blessurescorporelles.
c ) Empêcher les démarrages intempestifs. S’assurer
que l’interrupteur se trouve à la position d’arrêt
avant de relier l’outil à une source d’alimentation
et/ou d’insérer un bloc‑piles, de ramasser ou de
transporter l’outil. Transporter un outil électrique
alors que le doigt repose sur l’interrupteur ou brancher
un outil électrique dont l’interrupteur est à la position
de marche risque de provoquer unaccident.
d ) Retirer toute clé de réglage ou clé avant de
démarrer l’outil. Une clé ou une clé de réglage
attachée à une partie pivotante de l’outil électrique
peut provoquer des blessurescorporelles.
e ) Ne pas trop tendre les bras. Conserver son
équilibre en tout temps. Cela permet de mieux
maîtriser l’outil électrique dans les situationsimprévues.
f ) S’habiller de manière appropriée. Ne pas porter
de vêtements amples ni de bijoux. Garder les
cheveux, les vêtements et les gants à l’écart des
pièces mobiles. Les vêtements amples, les bijoux ou
les cheveux longs risquent de rester coincés dans les
piècesmobiles.
g ) Si des composants sont fournis pour le
raccordement de dispositifs de dépoussiérage
et de ramassage, s’assurer que ceux‑ci sont bien
raccordés et utilisés. L’utilisation d’un dispositif de
dépoussiérage peut réduire les dangers engendrés par
lespoussières.
h ) Ne pas laisser votre connaissance acquise suite
l’utilisation fréquente des outils vous permettre
de baisser la garde et ignorer les principes de
sécurité de l’outil. Un acte irréfléchi peut causer une
blessure grave en une fraction deseconde.
4) Utilisation et entretien d’un
outilélectrique
a ) Ne pas forcer un outil électrique. Utiliser l’outil
électrique approprié à l’application. Loutil
électrique approprié effectuera un meilleur travail,
de façon plus sûre et à la vitesse pour laquelle il a
étéconçu.
b ) Ne pas utiliser un outil électrique dont
l’interrupteur est défectueux. Tout outil électrique
dont l’interrupteur est défectueux est dangereux et doit
êtreréparé.
c ) Débranchez la fiche de la prise électrique et, si
amovible, retirez le bloc‑piles de l’outil avant
d’effectuer tout ajustement, changement et
entreposage de celui‑ci. Ces mesures préventives
réduisent les risques de démarrage accidentel de
l’outilélectrique.
d ) Ranger les outils électriques hors de la portée
des enfants et ne permettre à aucune personne
n’étant pas familière avec un outil électrique ou
son mode d’emploi d’utiliser cet outil. Les outils
électriques deviennent dangereux entre les mains
d’utilisateursinexpérimentés.

Consignes de sécurité propres à toutes
lesscies
Causes des rebonds et méthodes de prévention
pouvant être utilisées par l’utilisateur :
Le rebond est une réaction subite (causée par une lame de
scie pincée, coincée ou mal alignée) qui peut entraîner le
soulèvement d’une scie non contrôlée, sa sortie de l’ouvrage
et sa projection en direction del’utilisateur.
Si la lame est pincée ou coincée fortement pendant
l’abaissement de la scie, la lame se cale et le moteur réagit
en entraînant rapidement l’outil vers l’arrière dans la
direction del’opérateur.
Si la lame se tord ou perd son alignement correct au cours
de la coupe, les dents sur le bord arrière de la lame peuvent
entamer la surface supérieure du bois, forçant ainsi la
lame à sortir du trait de scie et à « sauter » vers l’arrière en
direction del’opérateur.
Le rebond est la conséquence d’une mauvaise utilisation de
la scie et/ou de procédures ou de conditions incorrectes, et
il peut être évité en prenant les précautions qui sont décrites
ci‑dessous :
a ) Maintenez fermement la scie avec vos deux
mains et positionnez vos bras de façon à résister
aux forces de rebond. Les forces de rebond peuvent
être contrôlées par l’utilisateur quand les précautions
appropriées sontprises.
b ) En cas de coincement de la lame ou d’interruption
d'une coupe pour une raison quelconque,
relâchez la gâchette et tenez la scie immobile
dans l’ouvrage jusqu’à ce que la lame se soit
immobilisée complètement. Ne tentez jamais
de retirer la scie de l’ouvrage ou de la tirer vers
l’arrière pendant que la lame est en mouvement,
car un rebond risquerait de se produire. Évaluez la
situation et prenez les mesures correctives nécessaires
pour éliminer la cause du coincement de lalame.
c ) Lorsque vous remettez une scie en marche quand
l’ouvrage est présent, centrez la lame de scie
dans le trait de scie et vérifiez que les dents de
la lame ne sont pas engagées dans le matériau
de l’ouvrage. Si la lame de scie se coince, elle peut
grimper hors de l’ouvrage ou rebondir sur celui‑ci
quand la scie est remise enmarche.
d ) Soutenez les panneaux de grande taille de façon à
minimiser le risque de pincement et de rebond de
la lame. Les panneaux de grande taille ont tendance
à s’affaisser sous leur propre poids. Des supports
doivent être placés des deux côtés sous le panneau, à
proximité de la ligne de coupe et à proximité du rebord
dupanneau.
e ) N’utilisez pas de lame émoussée ou endommagée.
Des lames non aiguisées ou mal installées produisent
Les rondelles et le boulon de lame ont été conçus
spécifiquement pour votre scie dans le but d'assurer
une performance optimale et un fonctionnement
sansdanger.
Consignes de sécurité propres àtoutes
lesscies
a ) DANGER: éloigner les mains des zones et
organes de coupe. Maintenir la deuxième main
sur la poignée auxiliaire ou le boîtier du moteur.
Lorsque les deux mains maintiennent la scie, la lame ne
peut lescouper.
b ) N’essayez pas de tenir le dessous de l’ouvrage. Le
protège‑lame ne peut pas vous protéger de la lame en
dessous del'ouvrage.
c ) Ajustez la profondeur de coupe à l’épaisseur de
l’ouvrage. Moins d’une dent entière de lame devrait
être visible en dessous del’ouvrage.
d ) Ne tenez jamais dans vos mains ou sur vos
genoux un ouvrage qui est en cours de coupe.
Fixez votre ouvrage sur une plateforme stable. Il
est important de soutenir correctement l’ouvrage afin
de minimiser l’exposition du corps à la lame, le risque
de coincement de la lame ou la perte de contrôle
del’outil.
e ) Tenez l’outil électrique par ses surfaces de
préhension isolantes quand vous réalisez une
opération au cours de laquelle l’outil de coupe
pourrait entrer en contact avec des câbles
dissimulés. Le contact avec un fil sous tension mettra
également sous tension toutes les pièces métalliques
exposées et donnera un choc électrique à l’utilisateur
del’outil.
f ) Pendant les coupes de refente, utilisez toujours
un guide de refente ou un guide à bord droit. Ceci
augmente toujours l’exactitude de la coupe et diminue
la possibilité de coincement de lalame.
g ) Utilisez toujours des lames dont l’alésage central
est de la taille et de la forme appropriées (soit
en forme de diamant, soit en forme de rond). Les
lames qui ne correspondent pas aux pièces de montage
de la cie tourneront de façon excentrique, ce qui
causera une perte de contrôle del’outil.
h ) Ne vous servez jamais de rondelles ou de boulons
de lames qui sont endommagés ou inappropriés.
g ) Suivre toutes les instructions de recharge et
ne rechargez pas le bloc‑piles ou l’outil à des
températures hors de la plage de température
indiquée dans les instructions. Une recharge
non conforme ou à une température hors des limites
spécifiées peut endommager les piles et augmenter le
risqued’incendie.
6) Réparation
a ) Faire réparer l’outil électrique par un réparateur
professionnel en n’utilisant que des pièces de
rechange identiques. Cela permettra de maintenir
une utilisation sécuritaire de l’outilélectriques.
b ) Ne jamais réparer des blocs‑piles endommagés.
La réparation de blocs‑piles doit seulement être
effectuée par le fabricant ou les fournisseurs de
serviceautorisé.

Renseignements de sécurité
supplémentaires
AVERTISSEMENT : ne jamais modifier loutil électrique
ou toute pièce de celui‑ci. Cela pourrait entraîner des
dommages matériels ou des blessurescorporelles.
AVERTISSEMENT : portez TOUJOURS des lunettes
de sécurité. Les lunettes de tous les jours NE SONT PAS
des lunettes de sécurité. De plus, utilisez un masque
facial ou antipoussière si l'opération de coupe est
poussiéreuse. PORTEZ TOUJOURS UN ÉQUIPEMENT DE
SÉCURITÉ CERTIFIÉ:
Protection des yeuxANSI Z87.1 (CAN/CSA Z94.3),
protection auditive ANSI S12.6 (S3.19),
protection respiratoire NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA.
AVERTISSEMENT : certaines poussières créées par le
ponçage mécanique, le sciage, l’aiguisage, le perçage
et autres activités de construction contiennent des
produits chimiques reconnus dans l’État de la Californie
pour causer le cancer et des anomalies congénitales
ou autres effets nuisibles sur la reproduction. Certains
exemples de ces produits chimiques sont:
le plomb provenant des peintures à base de plomb,
la silice cristallisée provenant des briques, du ciment
et d’autres produits de la maçonnerie ainsi que
l’arsenic et le chrome provenant du bois de
construction traitéchimiquement.
Le risque associé à de telles expositions varie selon
la fréquence à laquelle on effectue ces travaux. Pour
réduire toute exposition à ces produits: travailler dans
un endroit bien aéré, en utilisant du matériel de sécurité
homologué, tel un masque antipoussières spécialement
conçu pour filtrer les particulesmicroscopiques.
Consignes spécifiques additionnelles de
sécurité propres aux scies circulaires
AVERTISSEMENT: ne pas utiliser de meules ou de
lamesabrasives.
AVERTISSEMENT: ne pas utiliser des dispositifs
d’alimentation eneau.
Utilisez des serres de fixation ou un autre dispositif de
fixation permettant de soutenir et de retenir la pièce
sur une plate‑forme stable. Tenir la pièce avec la main
ou contre son corps nest pas suffisamment stable et risque
de provoquer une perte de maîtrise del’outil.
Se placer à gauche ou à droite de la lame de scie et
non dans sa trajectoire. L’EFFET DE REBOND risque de
faire rebondir la scie vers l’arrière (consulter les rubriques
Causes des rebonds et méthodes de prévention
pouvant être utilisées par l’utilisateur etREBOND).
Prendre des précautions à proximité des évents car
ils cachent des pièces mobiles. Vêtements amples,
bijoux ou cheveux longs risquent de rester coincés dans ces
piècesmobiles.
Éviter de couper des clous. Examiner la pièce à découper
pour s’assurer qu’elle ne renferme aucun clou avant les
travaux. Le cas échéant, lesretirer.
un trait de scie étroit qui cause une friction excessive, le
coincement de la lame et un effet derebond.
f ) Les leviers de réglage de la profondeur et de
l’angle de coupe de la lame doivent être bien
serrés et assujettis avant de réaliser une coupe.
Une modification du réglage de la lame pendant
la coupe risque d’entraîner un coincement et un
rebondissement de lalame.
g ) Procédez avec une prudence supplémentaire
quand vous réalisez une « coupe en plongée »
dans des murs déjà en place ou dans des pièces
sans issue. La lame saillante peut couper des objets, et
ceci peut entraîner unrebond.
Fonction de la garde
protectriceinférieure
a ) Inspectez le protège‑lame inférieur avant chaque
utilisation pour vous assurer qu’il se ferme
correctement. Ne faites pas fonctionner la scie
si le protège‑lame inférieur ne se déplace pas
librement et ne se ferme pas instantanément. Ne
forcez jamais le protège‑lame inférieur dans la
position ouverte à l’aide d’un collier de serrage
ou d’une attache. Il est possible que le protège‑lame
inférieur se torde en cas de chute accidentelle de la
scie. Soulevez le protège‑lame inférieur à l’aide de la
poignée rétractable et assurez‑vous qu’il se déplace
sans problème et qu’il ne touche pas la lame ou une
autre pièce, quel que soit l’angle ou la profondeur de
lacoupe.
b ) Vérifiez le fonctionnement du ressort du
protège‑lame inférieur. Si le protège‑lame
inférieur et le ressort ne fonctionnent pas
correctement, ils doivent être réparés avant
l’emploi. Le protège‑lame inférieur peut parfois
mal fonctionner à cause de pièces endommagées,
d’accumulation de résine ou dedébris.
c ) Le protège‑lame inférieur doit être rétracté
à la main uniquement à l’occasion de coupes
spéciales telles que les « coupes en plongée » ou
les « coupes composées ». Soulevez le protège‑lame
inférieur à l’aide la poignée rétractable et relâchez‑le
dès que la lame pénètre dans le matériau de l’ouvrage.
Pour toute autre opération de sciage, le protège‑lame
inférieur doit fonctionnerautomatiquement.
d ) Vérifiez toujours que le protège‑lame inférieur
couvre la lame avant de placez la scie sur un
banc ou sur le sol. Une lame non protégée qui
tourne librement entraînera le mouvement de la scie
en marche arrière, ce qui provoquera la coupe de tout
se qui se trouve sur sa trajectoire. Soyez conscient du
temps nécessaire à la lame pour s'arrêter une fois que la
gâchette estrelâchée.
