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

a ) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use

common sense when operating a power tool. Do

not use a power tool while you are tired or under

the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A

moment of inattention while operating power tools

may result in serious personalinjury.

b ) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear

eye protection. Protective equipment such as a dust

mask, non‑skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing

protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce

personalinjuries.

c ) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch

is in the off‑position before connecting to power

source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying

the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the

switch or energizing power tools that have the switch

on invitesaccidents.

d ) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before

turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left

attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result

in personalinjury.

e ) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and

balance at all times. This enables better control of the

power tool in unexpectedsituations.

f ) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or

jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away

from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair

can be caught in movingparts.

g ) If devices are provided for the connection of dust

extraction and collection facilities, ensure these

are connected and properly used. Use of dust

collection can reduce dust‑relatedhazards.

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.

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.L–O, 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.

1. Adjust the saw shoe so the blade cuts at desireddepth.

2. Tilt the saw forward and rest front of the shoe on material

to becut.

3. Using the lower blade guard retracting lever, retract the

lower blade guard to an upward position. Lower the

rear of the shoe until the blade teeth almost touch the

cuttingline.

4. Release the lower blade guard (its contact with the work

will keep it in position to open freely as you start the cut).

Remove your hand from the lower blade guard retracting

lever and firmly grip the auxiliary handle12, as shown

in FigureQ. Position your body and arm to allow you to

resist kickback if itoccurs.

5. Make sure blade is not in contact with cutting surface

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.

L’exposition 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. L’outil

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 l’outil 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 n’est 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.
