GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

WARNING: Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications

provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in

electric shock, fire and/or seriousinjury.

SAVE ALL WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR

FUTURE REFERENCE.

The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-

operated (cordless) powertool.

1) Work Area Safety

a ) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas inviteaccidents.

b ) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of

flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust

orfumes.

c ) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can

cause you to losecontrol.

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 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.

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.

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.

Safety Instructions for Miter Saws

a ) Miter saws are intended to cut wood or wood-like products, they cannot be used

with abrasive cut-off wheels for cutting ferrous material such as bars, rods, studs,

etc. Abrasive dust causes moving parts such as the lower guard to jam. Sparks from

abrasive cutting will burn the lower guard, the kerf insert and other plasticparts.

b ) Use clamps to support the workpiece whenever possible. If supporting the

workpiece by hand, you must always keep your hand at least 100 mm from either

side of the saw blade. Do not use this saw to cut pieces that are too small to be

securely clamped or held by hand. If your hand is placed too close to the saw blade, there

is an increased risk of injury from bladecontact.

c ) The workpiece must be stationary and clamped or held against both the fence and

the table. Do not feed the workpiece into the blade or cut “freehand” in any way.

Unrestrained or moving workpieces could be thrown at high speeds, causinginjury.

d ) Push the saw through the workpiece. Do not pull the saw through the workpiece. To

make a cut, raise the saw head and pull it out over the workpiece without cutting,

start the motor, press the saw head down and push the saw through the workpiece.

Cutting on the pull stroke is likely to cause the saw blade to climb on top of the workpiece

and violently throw the blade assembly towards theoperator.

e ) Never cross your hand over the intended line of cutting either in front or behind the

saw blade. Supporting the workpiece “cross handed” i.e. holding the workpiece to the right

of the saw blade with your left hand or vice versa is verydangerous.

f ) Do not reach behind the fence with either hand closer than 100 mm from either side

of the saw blade, to remove wood scraps, or for any other reason while the blade

is spinning. The proximity of the spinning saw blade to your hand may not be obvious and

you may be seriouslyinjured.

g ) Inspect your workpiece before cutting. If the workpiece is bowed or warped, clamp

it with the outside bowed face toward the fence. Always make certain that there

is no gap between the workpiece, fence and table along the line of the cut. Bent or

warped workpieces can twist or shift and may cause binding on the spinning saw

blade while cutting. There should be no nails or foreign objects in theworkpiece.

h ) Do not use the saw until the table is clear of all tools, wood scraps, etc., except

for the workpiece. Small debris or loose pieces of wood or other objects that contact the

revolving blade can be thrown with highspeed.

i ) Cut only one workpiece at a time. Stacked multiple workpieces cannot be adequately

clamped or braced and may bind on the blade or shift duringcutting.

j ) Ensure the miter saw is mounted or placed on a level, firm work surface before use.

A level and firm work surface reduces the risk of the miter saw becomingunstable.

k ) Plan your work. Every time you change the bevel or miter angle setting, make sure

the fence will not interfere with the blade or the guarding system. Without turning

the tool “ON” and with no workpiece on the table, move the saw blade through a complete

simulated cut to assure there will be no interference or danger of cutting thefence.

ENGLISH

l ) Provide adequate support such as table extensions, saw horses, etc. for a workpiece

that is wider or longer than the table top. Workpieces longer or wider than the miter

saw table can tip if not securely supported. If the cut-off piece or workpiece tips, it can

lift the lower guard or be thrown by the spinningblade.

m ) Do not use another person as a substitute for a table extension or as additional

support. Unstable support for the workpiece can cause the blade to bind or the workpiece to

shift during the cutting operation pulling you and the helper into the spinningblade.

n ) The cut-off piece must not be jammed or pressed by any means against the spinning

saw blade. If confined, i.e. using length stops, the cut-off piece could get wedged against the

blade and thrownviolently.

o ) Always use a clamp or a fixture designed to properly support round material such

as rods or tubing. Rods have a tendency to roll while being cut, causing the blade to “bite”

and pull the work with your hand into theblade.

p ) Let the blade reach full speed before contacting the workpiece. This will reduce the risk

of the workpiece beingthrown.

q ) If the workpiece or blade becomes jammed, turn the miter saw off. Wait for all

moving parts to stop and disconnect the plug from the power source and/or remove

the battery pack. Then work to free the jammed material. Continued sawing with a

jammed workpiece could cause loss of control or damage to the mitersaw.

r ) After finishing the cut, release the switch, hold the saw head down and wait for

the blade to stop before removing the cut-off piece. Reaching with your hand near the

coasting blade isdangerous.

s ) Hold the handle firmly when making an incomplete cut or when releasing the

switch before the saw head is completely in the down position. The braking action of

the saw may cause the saw head to be suddenly pulled downward, causing a risk ofinjury.

Additional Safety Rules for Miter Saws

WARNING: Do not insert the battery into the unit until complete instructions are read

andunderstood.

• NEVER PLACE HANDS CLOSER THAN 4" (100 mm) FROM THE BLADE.

• DO NOT OPERATE THIS MACHINE until it is completely assembled and installed according to

the instructions. A machine incorrectly assembled can cause seriousinjury.

• OBTAIN ADVICE from your supervisor, instructor, or another qualified person if you are not

thoroughly familiar with the operation of this machine. Knowledge issafety.

• MAKE CERTAIN the blade rotates in the correct direction. The teeth on the blade should point in

the direction of rotation as marked on thesaw.

• TIGHTEN ALL CLAMP HANDLES, knobs and levers prior to operation. Loose clamps can cause

parts or the workpiece to be thrown at highspeeds.

• BE SURE all blade and blade clamps are clean, recessed sides of blade clamps are against blade

and arbor screw is tightened securely. Loose or improper blade clamping may result in damage

to the saw and possible personalinjury.

• DO NOT OPERATE ON ANYTHING OTHER THAN THE DESIGNATED VOLTAGE for the saw.

Overheating, damage to the tool and personal injury mayoccur.

• DO NOT WEDGE ANYTHING AGAINST THE FAN to hold the motor shaft. Damage to tool and

possible personal injury mayoccur.

• NEVER CUT METALS or masonry. Either of these can cause the carbide tips to fly off the blade at

high speeds causing seriousinjury.

• NEVER HAVE ANY PART OF YOUR BODY IN LINE WITH THE PATH OF THE SAW BLADE.

Personal injury willoccur.

• NEVER APPLY BLADE LUBRICANT TO A RUNNING BLADE. Applying lubricant could cause

your hand to move into the blade resulting in seriousinjury.

• DO NOT place either hand in the blade area when the saw is connected to the power source.

Inadvertent blade activation may result in seriousinjury.

• NEVER REACH AROUND OR BEHIND THE SAW BLADE. A blade can cause seriousinjury.

• DO NOT REACH UNDERNEATH THE SAW unless it is unplugged and turned off. Contact with

saw blade may cause personalinjury.

• SECURE THE MACHINE TO A STABLE SUPPORTING SURFACE. Vibration can possibly cause

the machine to slide, walk, or tip over, causing seriousinjury.

• USE ONLY CROSSCUT SAW BLADES recommended for miter saws. For best results, do not

use carbide tipped blades with hook angles in excess of 7 degrees. Do not use blades with deep

gullets. These can deflect and contact the guard, and can cause damage to the machine and/or

seriousinjury.

• USE ONLY BLADES OF THE CORRECT SIZE AND TYPE specified for this tool to prevent

damage to the machine and/or seriousinjury.

• INSPECT BLADE FOR CRACKS or other damage prior to operation. A cracked or damaged

blade can come apart and pieces can be thrown at high speeds, causing serious injury. Replace

cracked or damaged bladesimmediately.

• CLEAN THE BLADE AND BLADE CLAMPS prior to operation. Cleaning the blade and blade

clamps allows you to check for any damage to the blade or blade clamps. A cracked or damaged

blade or blade clamp can come apart and pieces can be thrown at high speeds, causing

seriousinjury.

• DO NOT USE WARPED BLADES. Check to see if the blade runs true and is free from vibration. A

vibrating blade can cause damage to the machine and/or seriousinjury.

• DO NOT use lubricants or cleaners (particularly spray or aerosol) in the vicinity of the plastic

guard. The polycarbonate material used in the guard is subject to attack by certainchemicals.

• KEEP GUARD IN PLACE and in workingorder.

• ALWAYS USE THE KERF PLATE AND REPLACE THIS PLATE WHEN DAMAGED. Small chip

accumulation under the saw may interfere with the saw blade or may cause instability of

workpiece whencutting.

• USE ONLY BLADE CLAMPS SPECIFIED FOR THIS TOOL to prevent damage to the machine

and/or seriousinjury.

• CLEAN THE MOTOR AIR SLOTS of chips and sawdust. Clogged motor air slots can cause the

machine to overheat, damaging the machine and possibly causing a short which could cause

seriousinjury.

• NEVER LOCK THE SWITCH IN THE “ON” POSITION. Severe personal injury mayresult.

• NEVER STAND ON TOOL. Serious injury could occur if the tool is tipped or if the cutting tool is

unintentionallycontacted.

• ADDITIONAL INFORMATION regarding the safe and proper operation of power tools (i.e., a

safety video) is available from the Power Tool Institute, 1300 Sumner Avenue, Cleveland, OH

44115-2851 (www.powertoolinstitute.com). Information is also available from the National

Safety Council, 1121 Spring Lake Drive, Itasca, IL 60143-3201. Please refer to the American

National Standards Institute ANSI 01.1 Safety Requirements for Woodworking Machines and the

U.S. Department of Labor OSHA 1910.213Regulations.

prohibit transporting batteries in commerce or on airplanes in carry-on baggage UNLESS

they are properly protected from short circuits. So when transporting individual battery

packs, make sure that the battery terminals are protected and well insulated from materials

that could contact them and cause a short circuit.

NOTE: Lithium-ion batteries should not be put in checked baggage.

Shipping the

DeWALT

FLEXVOLT™ Battery

The D

WALT FLEXVOLT™ battery has two modes: Use and Shipping.

Use Mode: When the FLEXVOLT™ battery stands alone or is in a D

WALT 20V Max* product, it will

operate as a 20V Max* battery. When the FLEXVOLT™ battery is in a 60V Max* or a 120V Max*

(two 60V Max* batteries) product, it will operate as a 60V Max* battery.

Shipping Mode: When the cap is attached to the FLEXVOLT™

battery, the battery is in Shipping Mode. Strings of cells are

electrically disconnected within the pack resulting in three

batteries with a lower Watt hour (Wh) rating as compared to one

battery with a higher Watt hour rating. This increased quantity

of three batteries with the lower Watt hour rating can exempt the pack from certain shipping

regulations that are imposed upon the higher Watt hour batteries.

The battery label indicates two Watt hour ratings (see example). Depending on how the battery

is shipped, the appropriate Watt hour rating must be used to determine the applicable shipping

requirements. If utilizing the shipping cap, the pack will be considered 3 batteries at the Watt

hour rating indicated for “Shipping”. If shipping without the cap or in a tool, the pack will be

considered one battery at the Watt hour rating indicated next to “Use”.

USE: 120 Wh Shipping: 3 x 40 Wh

Example of Use and Shipping Label Marking

For example, Shipping Wh rating might indicate 3 x 40 Wh, meaning 3 batteries of 40 Watt hours

each. The Use Wh rating might indicate 120 Wh (1 battery implied).

Fuel Gauge Battery Packs (Fig. B)

Some

DeWALT

battery packs include a fuel gauge which consists of three green LED lights that

indicate the level of charge remaining in the batterypack.

The fuel gauge is an indication of approximate levels of charge remaining in the battery pack

according to the followingindicators:

75–100% charged

51–74% charged

< 50% charged

Pack needs to be charged

To actuate the fuel gauge, press and hold the fuel gauge button. A combination of the three

green LED lights will illuminate designating the level of charge left. When the level of charge in

the battery is below the usable limit, the fuel gauge will not illuminate and the battery will need

to berecharged.

Important Safety Instructions for All Battery Chargers

WARNING: Read all safety warnings and all instructions for the battery pack,

charger and power tool. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result

in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

• DO NOT attempt to charge the battery pack with any chargers other than the ones in

this manual. The charger and battery pack are specifically designed to worktogether.

• These chargers are not intended for any uses other than charging

DeWALT

rechargeable

batteries. Any other uses may result in risk of fire, electric shock orelectrocution.

• Do not expose the charger to rain orsnow.

• Pull by the plug rather than the cord when disconnecting the charger. This will reduce the

risk of damage to the electric plug andcord.

• Make sure that the cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over or

otherwise subjected to damage orstress.

• Do not use an extension cord unless it is absolutely necessary. Use of improper extension

cord could result in risk of fire, electric shock orelectrocution.

• When operating a charger outdoors, always provide a dry location and use an

extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the

risk of electricshock.

• An extension cord must have adequate wire size (AWG or American Wire Gauge) for

safety. The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cable, that is,

16 gauge has more capacity than 18 gauge. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage

resulting in loss of power and overheating. When using more than one extension to make up

the total length, be sure each individual extension contains at least the minimum wire size. The

following table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere

rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The lower the gauge number, the heavier thecord.

WARNING: If the plug or power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or

its representative or by an equally qualified person to avoiddanger.

• Do not place any object on top of the charger or place the charger on a soft surface that

might block the ventilation slots and result in excessive internal heat. Place the charger in

a position away from any heat source. The charger is ventilated through slots in the top and the

bottom of thehousing.

• Do not operate the charger with a damaged cord orplug.

• Do not operate the charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped or otherwise

damaged in any way. Take it to an authorized servicecenter.

• Do not disassemble the charger; take it to an authorized service center when service or

repair is required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of electric shock, electrocution orfire.

• Disconnect the charger from the outlet before attempting any cleaning. This will reduce

the risk of electric shock. Removing the battery pack will not reduce thisrisk.

• NEVER attempt to connect 2 chargerstogether.

• The charger is designed to operate on standard 120V household electrical power. Do

not attempt to use it on any other voltage. This does not apply to the vehicularcharger.

WARNING: Shock hazard. Do not allow any liquid to get inside the charger. Electric shock

mayresult.

WARNING: Burn hazard. Do not submerge the battery pack in any liquid or allow any liquid

to enter the battery pack. Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason. If the plastic

housing of the battery pack breaks or cracks, return to a service center for recycling.

CAUTION: Burn hazard. To reduce the risk of injury, charge only

DeWALT

rechargeable

battery packs. Other types of batteries may overheat and burst resulting in personal injury

and propertydamage.

NOTICE: Under certain conditions, with the charger plugged into the power supply, the

charger can be shorted by foreign material. Foreign materials of a conductive nature, such

as, but not limited to, grinding dust, metal chips, steel wool, aluminum foil or any buildup of

metallic particles should be kept away from the charger cavities. Always unplug the charger

from the power supply when there is no battery pack in the cavity. Unplug the charger before

attempting toclean.

Charging a Battery (Fig. C)

1. Plug the charger into an appropriate outlet before inserting battery pack.

2. Insert the battery pack16 into the charger, making sure the battery pack is fully seated in the

charger. The red (charging) light will blink continuously indicating that the charging process

has started.

3. The completion of charge will be indicated by the red light remaining ON continuously. The

battery pack is fully charged and may be used at this time or left in the charger. To remove the

battery pack from the charger, push the battery release button40 on the battery pack and

then slide the battery pack out of the charger.

Fig. C

NOTE: To ensure maximum performance and life of lithium-ion battery packs, charge the battery

pack fully before first use.

Charger Operation

Refer to the indicators below for the charge status of the battery pack.

DCB107, DCB112, DCB113, DCB115, DCB118, DCB132

Charging

Fully Charged

Hot/Cold Pack Delay*

* DCB107, DCB112, DCB113, DCB115, DCB118, DCB132: The red light will continue to blink,

but a yellow indicator light will be illuminated during this operation. Once the battery pack has

reached an appropriate temperature, the yellow light will turn off and the charger will resume

the charging procedure.

The compatible charger(s) will not charge a faulty battery pack. The charger will indicate faulty

battery pack by refusing to light.

NOTE: This could also mean a problem with a charger.

If the charger indicates a problem, take the charger and battery pack to be tested at an authorized

service center.

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 will charge at a slower rate than a warm battery pack. The battery pack will

charge at that slower rate throughout the entire charging cycle and will not return to maximum

charge rate even if the battery pack warms.

The DCB118 charger is 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.

Never operate the charger if the fan does not operate properly or if ventilation slots are blocked.

Do not permit foreign objects to enter the interior of the charger.

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 if the Electronic Protection System engages. If this occurs,

place the lithium-ion battery pack on the charger until it is fully charged.

ENGLISH

Wall Mounting

DCB107, DCB112, DCB113, DCB115, DCB118, DCB132

These 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) at least 1" (25.4 mm) long, with a screw head diameter of 0.28–0.35"

(7–9mm), screwed into wood to an optimal depth leaving approximately 7/32" (5.5 mm) of

the screw exposed. Align the slots on the back of the charger with the exposed screws and fully

engage them in the slots.

Charger Cleaning Instructions

WARNING: Shock hazard. Disconnect the charger from the AC outlet before cleaning.

Dirt and grease may be removed from the exterior of the charger using a cloth or soft non-

metallic brush. Do not use water or any cleaning solutions.

Important Charging Notes

1. Longest life and best performance can be obtained if the battery pack is charged when the

air temperature is between 65°F and 75°F (18° – 24°C). DO NOT charge the battery pack

below +40°F (+4.5°C), or above +104°F (+40°C). This is important and will prevent serious

damage to the battery pack.

2. 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.

3. 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. Move the charger and battery pack to a location where the surrounding air temperature is

approximately 65°F – 75°F (18° – 24°C);

d. If charging problems persist, take the tool, battery pack and charger to your local service

center.

4. The battery pack should be recharged when it fails to produce sufficient power on jobs which

were easily done previously. DO NOT CONTINUE to use under these conditions. Follow the

charging procedure. You may also charge a partially used pack whenever you desire with no

adverse effect on the battery pack.

5. Foreign materials of a conductive nature such as, but not limited to, grinding dust, metal

chips, steel wool, aluminum foil, or any buildup of metallic particles should be kept away from

charger cavities. Always unplug the charger from the power supply when there is no battery

pack in the cavity. Unplug the charger before attempting to clean.

6. Do not freeze or immerse the charger in water or any other liquid.

Storage Recommendations

1. The best storage place is one that is cool and dry, away from direct sunlight and excess heat

or cold.

2. For long storage, it is recommended to store a fully charged battery pack in a cool dry place

out of the charger for optimal results.

NOTE: Battery packs should not be stored completely depleted of charge. The battery pack will

need to be recharged before use.

Familiarization (Fig. A, D)

Your miter saw is fully assembled in the carton. Open the box and lift the saw out either by using

the lifting handle15 or by the hand indentations10 in the base of the saw (Fig.D).

Place the saw on a smooth, flat surface such as a workbench or strongtable.

Examine FigureA to become familiar with the saw and its various parts. The section on

adjustments will refer to these terms and you must know what and where the partsare.

CAUTION: Pinch hazard. To reduce the risk of injury, keep thumb underneath the operating

handle when pulling the handle down. The lower guard will move up as the operating

handle is pulled down, which could cause pinching. The operating handle is placed close to

the guard for specialcuts.

Press down lightly on the operating handle2 and pull out the lock down pin23. Gently release

the downward pressure and hold the operating handle, allowing it to rise to its full height. Use

the lock down pin when carrying the saw from one place to another. Always use the hand

indentations10 to transport the saw as seen in FigureD.

Fig. D

Bench Mounting (Fig. A)

Holes3 are provided in all 4 feet to facilitate bench mounting, as shown in FigureA. (Two

different-sized holes are provided to accommodate different sizes of screws. Use either hole,

it is not necessary to use both.) Always mount your saw firmly to a stable surface to prevent

movement. To enhance the tool’s portability, it can be mounted to a piece of 1/2" (12.7 mm) or

thicker plywood which can then be clamped to your work support or moved to other job sites

andreclamped.

NOTE: If you elect to mount your saw to a piece of plywood, make sure that the mounting

screws don’t protrude from the bottom of the wood. The plywood must sit flush on the work

support. When clamping the saw to any work surface, clamp only on the clamping bosses where

the mounting screw holes are located. Clamping at any other point will interfere with the proper

operation of thesaw.

CAUTION: To prevent binding and inaccuracy, be sure the mounting surface is not warped

or otherwise uneven. If the saw rocks on the surface, place a thin piece of material under one

saw foot until the saw sits firmly on the mountingsurface.

Dust Extraction (Fig. A, J)

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn tool off and remove the

battery pack before transporting, making any adjustments or removing/installing

attachments or accessories. An accidental start-up can causeinjury.

Your saw has a built-in dust port14 that allows either the supplied dust bag43 or a shop

vacuum system to beconnected.

To Attach the Dust Bag

1. Fit the dust bag43 to the dust port14 as shown in FigureJ.

To Empty the Dust Bag

1. Remove dust bag43 from the saw and gently shake or tap the dust bag toempty.

2. Reattach the dust bag back onto the dust port14.

You may notice that all the dust will not come free from the bag. This will not affect cutting

performance but will reduce the saw's dust collection efficiency. To restore your saw's dust

collection efficiency, depress the spring inside the dust bag when you are emptying it and tap it

on the side of the trash can or dustreceptacle.

ENGLISH

CAUTION: Never operate this saw unless the dust bag or

DeWALT

dust extractor is in

place. Wood dust may create a breathinghazard.

Fig. J

Cutting with your Saw (Fig. A, K)

If the slide feature is not used, ensure the saw head48 (Fig. K) is pushed back as far as possible

and the rail lock knob20 is tightened. This will prevent the saw head from sliding along its rails

as the workpiece isengaged.

NOTE: DO NOT CUT METALS OR MASONRY WITH THIS SAW. Do not use any abrasiveblades.

NOTE: Refer to Guard Actuation and Visibility in the Adjustments section for important

information about the lower guard beforecutting.

Crosscuts (Fig. A, K, L)

A crosscut is made by cutting wood across the grain at any angle. A straight crosscut is made

with the miter arm at the zero degree position. Set and lock the miter arm at zero, hold the wood

firmly on the table and against the fence. With the rail lock knob20 tightened, turn on the saw

by squeezing the trigger switch1 shown in FigureA.

When the saw comes up to speed (about 1 second) lower the saw head48 (Fig. K) smoothly and

slowly to cut through the wood. Let the blade come to a full stop before raisingsaw head .

When cutting anything larger than a 2 x 4 (51 x 102), use an out-down-back motion with the rail

lock knob20 loosened. Pull the saw head out, toward you, lower the saw head down toward the

workpiece, and slowly push the saw head back to complete the cut. Do not allow the saw blade

to contact the top of the workpiece while pulling out. The saw may run toward you, possibly

causing personal injury or damage to theworkpiece.

Fig. K

WARNING: Always use a work clamp to maintain control and reduce the risk of workpiece

damage and personal injury, if your hands are required to be within 4" (100 mm) of the blade

during thecut.

NOTE: The rail lock knob20 shown in FigureA must be loose to allow the saw head48 to slide

along itsrails.

Miter crosscuts are made with the miter arm at some angle other than zero. This angle is often

45º for making corners, but can be set anywhere from zero to 48º left or 48° right. Make the cut as

describedabove.

When performing a miter cut on workpieces wider than a 2 x 6 that are shorter in length, always

place the longer side against the fence11 (Fig. L).

To cut through an existing pencil line on a piece of wood, match the angle as close as possible.

Cut the wood a little too long and measure from the pencil line to the cut edge to determine

which direction to adjust the miter angle and recut. This will take some practice, but it is a

commonly usedtechnique.

Fig. L

Bevel Cuts (Fig. A)

A bevel cut is a crosscut made with the saw blade leaning at an angle to the wood. In order to

set the bevel, loosen the bevel lock knob12, and move the saw to the left as desired. Once

the desired bevel angle has been set, tighten the bevel lock firmly. Refer to the Features and

Controls section for detailed instructions on the bevelsystem.

Bevel angles can be set from 3º right to 48ºleft.

Quality of Cut

The smoothness of any cut depends on a number of variables. Things like material being cut,

blade type, blade sharpness and rate of cut all contribute to the quality of thecut.

When smoothest cuts are desired for molding and other precision work, a sharp (60 tooth carbide

tip) blade and a slower, even cutting rate will produce the desiredresults.

Ensure that the material does not move or creep while cutting; clamp it securely in place. Always

let the blade come to a full stop before raisingsaw head48.

If small fibers of wood still split out at the rear of the workpiece, stick a piece of masking tape

on the wood where the cut will be made. Saw through the tape and carefully remove tape

whenfinished.

For varied cutting applications, refer to the list of recommended saw blades for your saw and

select the one that best fits your needs. Refer to Saw Blades under OptionalAccessories.

Body and Hand Position (Fig. M1–M4)

Proper positioning of your body and hands when operating the miter saw will make cutting

easier, more accurate and safer. Never place hands near cutting area. Place hands no closer than

4" (100 mm) from the blade. Hold the workpiece tightly to the table and the fence when cutting.

Keep hands in position until the trigger has been released and the blade has completely stopped.

ALWAYS MAKE DRY RUNS (UNPOWERED) BEFORE FINISH CUTS SO THAT YOU CAN CHECK THE

Clamping the Workpiece

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn tool off and remove the

battery pack before transporting, making any adjustments or removing/installing

attachments or accessories. An accidental start-up can causeinjury.

WARNING: A workpiece that is clamped, balanced and secure before a cut may become

unbalanced after a cut is completed. An unbalanced load may tip the saw or anything the

saw is attached to, such as a table or workbench. When making a cut that may become

unbalanced, properly support the workpiece and ensure the saw is firmly bolted to a stable

surface. Personal injury mayoccur.

WARNING: The clamp foot must remain clamped above the base of the saw whenever the

clamp is used. Always clamp the workpiece to the base of the saw – not to any other part of

the work area. Ensure the clamp foot is not clamped on the edge of the base of thesaw.

WARNING: Always use a work clamp to maintain control and reduce the risk of workpiece

damage and personal injury, if your hands are required to be within 4" (100 mm) of the blade

during thecut.

If you cannot secure the workpiece on the table and against the fence by hand (irregular shape,

etc.), or your hand would be less than 4" (100 mm) from the blade, a clamp or other fixture must

beused.

Use the material clamp provided with your saw. To purchase a material clamp, contact your local

retailer or

DeWALT

servicecenter.

Other aids such as spring clamps, bar clamps or C-clamps may be appropriate for certain sizes

and shapes of material. Use care in selecting and placing these clamps. Take time to make a dry

run before making thecut.

To Install Clamp (Fig. A, N)

1. Insert the clamp44 into one of the two locations21 on the base.

Fig. N

2. Lifting up on the arm of the clamp can rapidly adjust the height, then use the fine adjust

knob to firmly clamp the workpiece.

NOTE: Place the clamp on the opposite side of the base when beveling. ALWAYS MAKE DRY

RUNS (UNPOWERED) BEFORE FINISH CUTS TO CHECK THE PATH OF THE BLADE. ENSURE THE

CLAMP DOES NOT INTERFERE WITH THE ACTION OF THE SAW ORGUARDS.

ADJUSTMENTS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn tool off and remove the

battery pack before transporting, making any adjustments or removing/installing

attachments or accessories. An accidental start-up can causeinjury.

Your miter saw is fully and accurately adjusted at the factory at the time of manufacture.

If readjustment due to shipping and handling or any other reason is required, follow the

instructions below to adjust yoursaw.

Once made, these adjustments should remain accurate. Take a little time now to follow these

directions carefully to maintain the accuracy of which your saw iscapable.

Miter Scale Adjustment (Fig. F, K, O)

Lock the saw head48 (Fig. K) in the down position. Unlock the miter lock knob5 and swing the

miter arm until the miter latch button6 locks it at the 0° miter position. Do not lock the miter

lock knob. Place a square against the saw’s fence and blade, as shown. (Do not touch the tips of

the blade teeth with the square. To do so will cause an inaccurate measure ment.) If the saw blade

is not exactly perpendicular to the fence, loosen the three screws9 that hold the miter scale8

and move the miter lock handle and the scale left or right until the blade is perpendicular to the

fence, as measured with the square. Retighten the three screws. Pay no attention to the reading

of the miter pointer at thistime.

Fig. O

Miter Pointer Adjustment (Fig. F)

Unlock the miter lock mechanism by pulling up on the miter lock knob5. Push the miter latch

button6 down and allow the miter latch to snap into place as you rotate the miter arm to

zero. Observe the miter pointer33 and miter scale8 shown in FigureF. If the pointer does not

indicate exactly zero, loosen the miter pointer screw34 holding the pointer in place, reposition

the pointer and tighten thescrew.

Bevel Square to Table Adjustment (Fig. A, G, K, P)

To align the blade square to the table, lock the saw head48 (Fig. K) in the down position with

the lock down pin23. Place a square against the blade, ensuring the square is not on top of a

tooth. Loosen the bevel lock knob12 and ensure the saw head is firmly against the 0° bevel stop.

Rotate the 0° bevel adjustment screw45 with the 6mm hex wrench as necessary so that the

blade is at 0° bevel to the table, as measured with thesquare.

Fig. P

Bevel Pointer (Fig. G)

If the bevel pointer39 does not indicate zero, loosen the screw that holds the bevel

pointer41 in place and move it as necessary. Ensure the 0° bevel is correct and the bevel pointer

is set before adjusting any other bevel anglescrews.

Bevel Stop 45º Left Adjustment (Fig. A, G)

To adjust the left 45° bevel stop, first loosen the bevel lock knob and tilt the head to the left. If the

bevel pointer does not indicate exactly 45°, turn the left 45° bevel adjustment screw46 until the

bevel pointer reads 45°.

Guard Actuation and Visibility (Fig. A, K, Y)

CAUTION: Pinch hazard. To reduce the risk of injury, keep thumb underneath the operating

handle when pulling the handle down. The lower guard will move up as the operating

handle is pulled down, which could causepinching.

The lower guard4 on your saw has been designed to automatically uncover the blade when the

saw head48 (Fig. K) is brought down and to cover the blade when the saw head israised.

Before each use or after making adjustments, cycle the saw head (unpowered) and make sure

the guard opens smoothly and closes fully. It should not contact the blade. With the saw head

up, raise the guard (unpowered) as shown in FigureY and release. The guard should fully close

rapidly. Do not operate the saw if the guard does not move freely and fully close rapidly. Never

clamp or tie the guard in an open position when operating thesaw.

The guard can be raised by hand when installing or removing saw blades or for inspection of the

saw. NEVER RAISE THE LOWER GUARD MANUALLY UN LESS THE BLADE ISSTOPPED.

NOTE: Certain special cuts of large material will require that you manually raise the guard. Refer

to Cutting Large Material under SpecialCuts.

ENGLISH

The front section of the guard is louvered for visibility while cutting. Although the louvers

dramatically reduce ﬂying debris, they are openings in the guard and safety glasses should be

The chart assumes that all sides are of equal length. For a shape that is not shown in the chart,

use the following formula: 180º divided by the number of sides equals the miter (if the material is

cut vertically) or bevel angle (if the material is cut laying ﬂat).

Cutting Crown Molding

The two ﬂat surfaces on a given piece of crown molding are at angles that, when added together,

equal exactly 90°. Most, but not all, crown molding has a top rear angle (the section that ﬁts ﬂat

against the ceiling) of 52° and a bottom rear angle (the part that ﬁts ﬂat against the wall) of 38°.

Your miter saw has special pre-set miter detent points at 31.6° left and right for cutting crown

molding at the proper angle. There is also a mark on the bevel scale at 33.9°.

The Bevel Setting/Type of Cut chart gives the proper settings for cutting crown molding. (The

numbers for the miter and bevel settings are very precise and are not easy to accurately set on

your saw.) Since most rooms do not have angles of precisely 90°, you will have to ﬁne tune your

!TNATROPMI YL EMERT XE SI LAIRETAM PARCS HTIW GNITSETERP

NOTE: If the cutting angle varies from cut to cut, check that the bevel clamp knob and the miter

lock knob are securely tightened. These knobs must be tightened after making any changes in

bevel or miter.

The chart (Table 1) will assist you in selecting the proper bevel and miter settings for common

compound miter cuts. To use the chart, select the desired angle “A” (Figure S, Angle A+Exteriors

Angles = 90°) of your project and locate that angle on the appropriate arc in the chart. From

that point follow the chart straight down to ﬁnd the correct bevel angle and straight across to

ﬁnd the correct miter angle.

Set your saw to the prescribed angles and make a few trial cuts. Practice ﬁtting the cut pieces

together until you develop a feel for this procedure and feel comfortable with it.

Example: To make a 4 sided box with 65° exterior angles(Figure S), 25°(Angle A) = 90° –

65°(Exteriors angles), use the upper right arc. Find 25° on the arc scale. Follow the horizontal

intersecting line to either side to get miter angle setting on saw (23°). Likewise, follow the

vertical intersecting line to the top or bottom to get the bevel angle setting on the saw (40°).

Always try cuts on a few scrap pieces of wood to verify settings on saw.

NOTE: When setting bevel and miter angles for all compound miters, remember that the angles

presented for crown moldings are very precise and difficult to set exactly. Since they can easily

shift slightly and very few rooms have exactly square corners, all settings should be tested on

scrapmolding.

Fig. U

Fig. V

PRETESTING WITH SCRAP MATERIAL IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT!

Alternative Method for Cutting Crown Molding

Place the molding at an angle between the fence11 and the saw table47, with the top side of

the molding on the table and the bottom side of the molding on the fence as shown in FigureV.

The advantage to cutting crown molding using this method is that no bevel cut is required.

Minute changes in the miter angle can be made without affecting the bevel angle. This way,

when corners other than 90º are encountered, the saw can be quickly and easily adjusted

forthem.

Instructions for Cutting Crown Molding Angled Between the

Fence and Base of the Saw for All Cuts

This saw can cut up to 9/16” (14 mm) x 3–5/8” (92 mm) crown moldingnested.

1. Angle the molding so the bottom of the molding (part which goes against the wall when

installed) is against the fence11 and the top of the molding is resting on the saw table47,

as shown in FigureV.

2. The angled “flats” on the back of the molding must rest squarely on the fence and sawtable.

Special Cuts

NEVER MAKE ANY CUT UNLESS THE MATERIAL IS SECURED ON THE TABLE AND AGAINST

THEFENCE.

Bowed Material (Fig. W, X)

When cutting bowed material always position it as shown in FigureW and never like that

shown in FigureX. Positioning the material incorrectly will cause it to pinch the blade near the

completion of thecut.

Fig. W

Fig. X

Cutting Round Material

Rounded material should be clamped or held firmly to the fence to keep it from rolling.

This is extremely important when making anglecuts.

Cutting Large Material (Fig. Y)

Occasionally you will encounter a piece of wood a little too large to fit beneath the lower guard.

To clear the guard over the wood, with the saw off and your right hand on the operating handle,

place your right thumb outside of the upper portion of the guard and roll the guard up just

enough to clear the wood, as shown in FigureY. Release the guard prior to starting the motor. The

guard mechanism will function properly during the cut. Only do this when necessary. NEVER TIE,

TAPE, OR OTHERWISE HOLD THE GUARD OPEN WHEN OPERATING THISSAW.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn tool off and remove the

battery pack before transporting, making any adjustments or removing/installing

attachments or accessories. An accidental start-up can causeinjury.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, DO NOT touch the sharp

points on the blade with fingers or hands while performing anymaintenance.

DO NOT use lubricants or cleaners (particularly spray or aerosol) in the vicinity of the plastic

guard. The polycarbonate material used in the guard is subject to attack by certainchemicals.

ENGLISH

• All bearings are sealed. They are lubricated for life and need no furthermaintenance.

• Periodically clean all dust and wood chips from around AND UNDER the base and the

rotary table. Even though slots are provided to allow debris to pass through, some dust

willaccumulate.

• The brushes are designed to give you several years of use. If they ever need replacement,

return the tool to the nearest service center forrepair.

Cleaning

WARNING: Blow dirt and dust out of all air vents with clean, dry air at least once a week.

To minimize the risk of eye injury, always wear ANSI Z87.1 approved eye protection when

performingthisprocedure.

WARNING: Never use solvents or other harsh chemicals for cleaning the non-metallic parts

of the tool. These chemicals may weaken the plastic materials used in these parts. Use a

cloth dampened only with water and mild soap. Never let any liquid get inside the tool; never

immerse any part of the tool into aliquid.

Dust Duct Cleaning (Fig. K)

Depending on your cutting environment, saw dust can clog the dust duct and may prevent

dust from flowing away from the cutting area properly. With the battery pack removed and the

saw head48 (Fig. K) raised fully, low pressure air or a large diameter dowel rod can be used to

clear the dust out of the dustduct.

AVERTISSEMENTS GÉNÉRAUX SUR LA SÉCURITÉ DES OUTILS

AVERTISSEMENT: lisez tous les avertissements de sécurité, toutes les instructions,

les illustrations et les caractéristiques fournis avec cet outil électrique. Ne pas suivre

toutes les instructions comprises aux présentes peut conduire à un choc électrique, un

incendie et/ou des blessuresgraves.

CONSERVER TOUS LES AVERTISSEMENTS ET TOUTES LES

DIRECTIVES POUR UN USAGE ULTÉRIEUR

Le terme « outil électrique » cité dans les avertissements se rapporte à votre outil électrique à

alimentation sur secteur (avec fil) ou par piles (sans fil).

1) Sécurité du lieu de travail

a ) Tenir l’aire de travail propre et bien éclairée. Les lieux encombrés ou sombres sont

propices auxaccidents.

b ) Ne pas faire fonctionner d’outils électriques dans un milieu déflagrant, tel qu’en

présence de liquides, de gaz ou de poussières inflammables. Les outils électriques

produisent des étincelles qui pourraient enflammer la poussière ou lesvapeurs.

c ) Éloigner les enfants et les personnes à proximité pendant l’utilisation d’un outil

électrique. Une distraction pourrait en faire perdre la maîtrise àl’utilisateur.

2) Sécurité en matière d’électricité

a ) Les fiches des outils électriques doivent correspondre à la prise. Ne jamais modifier

la fiche d’aucune façon. Ne jamais utiliser de fiche d’adaptation avec un outil

électrique mis à la terre. Le risque de choc électrique sera réduit par l’utilisation de fiches

non modifiées correspondant à laprise.

b ) Éviter tout contact physique avec des surfaces mises à la terre comme des tuyaux,

des radiateurs, des cuisinières et des réfrigérateurs. Le risque de choc électrique est plus

élevé si votre corps est mis à laterre.

c ) Ne pas exposer les outils électriques à la pluie ou à l’humidité. La pénétration de l’eau

dans un outil électrique augmente le risque de chocélectrique.

d ) Ne pas utiliser le cordon de façon abusive. Ne jamais utiliser le cordon pour

transporter, tirer ou débrancher un outil électrique. Tenir le cordon éloigné de

la chaleur, de l’huile, des bords tranchants et des pièces mobiles. Les cordons

endommagés ou enchevêtrés augmentent les risques de chocélectrique.

e ) Pour l’utilisation d’un outil électrique à l’extérieur, se servir d’une rallonge

convenant à cette application. L’utilisation d’une rallonge conçue pour l’extérieur réduira

les risques de chocélectrique.

f ) S’il est impossible d’éviter l’utilisation d’un outil électrique dans un endroit

humide, brancher l’outil dans une prise ou sur un circuit d’alimentation dotés d’un

disjoncteur de fuite à la terre (GFCI). L’utilisation de ce type de disjoncteur réduit les

risques de chocélectrique.

3) Sécurité personnelle

a ) Être vigilant, surveiller le travail effectué et faire preuve de jugement lorsqu’un

outil électrique est utilisé. Ne pas utiliser d’outil électrique en cas de fatigue ou sous

l’influence de drogues, d’alcool ou de médicaments. Un simple moment d’inattention

en utilisant un outil électrique peut entraîner des blessures corporellesgraves.

b ) Utiliser des équipements de protection individuelle. Toujours porter une protection

oculaire. L’utilisation d’équipements de protection comme un masque antipoussière, des

chaussures 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.

e ) Gardez les poignées et surfaces d’emprise propres et libres de tout produit

lubrifiant. Vérifier si les pièces mobiles sont mal alignées ou coincées, si des pièces

sont brisées ou présentent toute autre condition susceptible de nuire au bon

fonctionnement de l’outil électrique. En cas de dommage, faire réparer l’outil

électrique avant toute nouvelle utilisation. Beaucoup d’accidents sont causés par des

outils électriques malentretenus.

f ) S’assurer que les outils de coupe sont aiguisés et propres. Les outils de coupe bien

entretenus et affûtés sont moins susceptibles de se coincer et sont plus faciles àmaîtriser.

g ) Utiliser l’outil électrique, les accessoires, les forets, etc. conformément aux

présentes directives en tenant compte des conditions de travail et du travail à

effectuer. L’utilisation d’un outil électrique pour toute opération autre que celle pour

laquelle il a été conçu estdangereuse.

h ) Garder vos mains et les surfaces de prise sèches, propres et libres de graisse et de

poussière. Les mains et les surfaces de prise glissante ne permettent pas la manutention et

le contrôle sécuritaires de l’outil dans les situationsimprévues.

5) Utilisation et entretien du bloc-piles

a ) Ne recharger l’outil qu’au moyen du chargeur précisé par le fabricant. L’utilisation

d’un chargeur qui convient à un type de bloc-piles risque de provoquer un incendie s’il est

utilisé avec un autre type de b loc-piles.

b ) Utiliser les outils électriques uniquement avec les blocs-piles conçus à cet effet.

L’utilisation de tout autre bloc-piles risque de causer des blessures ou unincendie.

c ) Lorsque le bloc-piles n’est pas utilisé, le tenir éloigné des objets métalliques,

notamment des trombones, de la monnaie, des clés, des clous, des vis ou autres

petits objets métalliques qui peuvent établir une connexion entre les 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. L’exposition aux flammes ou à une température au-dessus de 130°C (265°F)

pourrait causer uneexplosion.

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.

Consignes de sécurité propres aux scies à onglet

a ) Les scies à onglet ont été conçues pour découper le bois ou des produits similaires.

Elles ne peuvent être utilisées avec des meules à tronçonner pour découper des

matériaux ferreux tels barres, tiges, montants, etc. Les poussières abrasives

pourront enrayer les pièces mobiles comme le carter inférieur. Les étincelles provenant

de la découpe abrasive pourront brûler le carter inférieur, la plaque du trait de scie ou toute

autre pièce enplastique.

b ) Utiliser des serre-joints pour soutenir la pièce à travailler chaque fois que possible.

Pour soutenir la pièce manuellement, maintenir systématiquement la main à au

moins 100mm de chaque côté de la lame. Ne pas utiliser cette scie pour couper des

pièces trop petites pour être arrimées ou tenues manuellement de façon sécuritaire.

Si la main s’approche trop près de la lame, les risques de dommages corporels par contact

avec la lameaugmentent.

c ) La pièce à travailler doit être fixe et bien arrimée, ou maintenue, contre le guide

et la table. Ne jamais alimenter la pièce à travailler vers la lame ou couper à main

levée. Une pièce non maintenue ou mobile pourrait être éjectée à grande vitesse et causer

des dommagescorporels.

d ) Poussez la scie au travers de la pièce à travailler. Ne pas tirer la scie au travers de la

pièce à travailler. Pour effectuer une coupe, lever la tête de scie puis la positionner

au-dessus de la pièce sans couper, mettre le moteur en marche, abaisser la tête

de scie et pousser la scie au travers de la pièce. Découper en tirant la scie pourra faire

que la lame saute la pièce à travailler et que le dispositif de lame soit violemment rejeté

surl’utilisateur.

FRANÇAIS

e ) Ne jamais laisser la main traverser la ligne de coupe, que ce soit devant ou derrière

la lame. Le fait de maintenir la pièce en croisant les bras (la maintenir du côté droit de la scie

avec la main gauche, ou inversement) est extrêmementdangereux.

f ) Ne pas envoyer les mains derrière le guide à moins de 100mm de chaque côté de la

lame, pour retirer un débris, ou pour toute autre raison, alors que la lame tourne. La

proximité de la lame en mouvement avec la main pourrait ne pas être évidente et poser des

risques de dommages corporelsgraves.

g ) Vérifier la pièce avant la coupe. Si la pièce est gauchie ou voilée, l’arrimer avec la

courbe externe orientée vers le guide. S’assurer systématiquement qu’il n’y a aucun

espace entre la pièce, le guide et la table le long de la ligne de coupe. Les pièces

gauchies ou voilées peuvent se tordre ou bouger et causer un grippage au niveau de

la lame en mouvement pendant la coupe. La pièce devrait être exempte de clous ou de

tout autre objetétranger.

h ) Ne pas utiliser la scie tant que la table ne sera pas débarrassée de tout outil,

débris de bois, etc., autre que la pièce à travailler. Les petits débris, morceaux de bois,

ou autres objets qui entreraient en contact avec la scie en mouvement pourraient être

éjectésviolemment.

i ) Couper une pièce à la fois. Les pièces mises les unes sur les autres ne peuvent être arrimées

de façon adéquate et pourraient rester coincées dans la lame ou bouger pendant lacoupe.

j ) S’assurer que la scie à onglet est montée ou installée sur une surface plane et ferme

avant son utilisation. Une surface plane et ferme réduit les risques d’instabilité de la scie

àonglet.

k ) Planifier le travail. À chaque changement de réglage d’angle de biseau ou d’onglet,

vérifier que le guide n’interfèrera pas avec la lame et le dispositif de protection.

Alors que l’outil n’est pas en ‘”MARCHE” et qu’aucune pièce ne se trouve sur la table, déplacer

la lame tout du long pour simuler une coupe complète pour s’assurer qu’il n’y aura aucune

interférence ou risque de couper leguide.

l ) Offrir un soutien adéquat, tel que rallonges de table, chevalets, etc., pour toute

pièce plus longue ou plus large que la table de l’établi. Les pièces plus longues

ou plus larges que la table de scie à onglet pourraient tomber si elles ne sont pas

soigneusement soutenues. Si c’était le cas, aussi bien pour la pièce ou la découpe, elles

pourraient soulever le carter inférieur ou être rejetées par la lame enmouvement.

m ) Ne pas utiliser un autre individu comme substitut à une rallonge ou à un support

additionnel. Le soutien instable de la pièce pourra gripper la lame ou faire bouger la pièce

pendant la découpe, et attirer l’utilisateur et son aide vers la lame enmouvement.

n ) La découpe ne doit pas être coincée ou appuyée en aucune façon contre la lame en

mouvement. Si elle était coincée (à l’aide de butées longitudinales), la découpe pourrait être

bloquée contre la lame et rejetéeviolemment.

o ) Utiliser systématiquement un serre-joint ou un dispositif de fixation pour soutenir

correctement des matériaux arrondis comme les barreaux ou la tubulure. Les

barreaux ont tendance à rouler pendant la coupe, gripper la lame et attirer la pièce et la

main vers lalame.

p ) Laisser la lame tourner à plein régime avant de la mettre en contact avec la pièce.

Cela réduira les risques que la pièce soitéjectée.

q ) Si la pièce ou la lame se grippait, arrêter la scie à onglet. Attendre l’arrêt complet de

toutes les pièces mobiles, déconnecter l’outil du secteur et/ou retirer le bloc-piles. Et

alors seulement, libérer le matériau coincé. Le fait de continuer à scier alors que la pièce

est grippée pourra causer la perte de contrôle de la scie à onglet et l’endommager.

r ) Une fois la coupe terminée, relâchez l’interrupteur, maintenir la tête de scie

abaissée et attendre l’arrêt complet de la lame avant de retirer la découpe.

Approcher la main d’une lame au ralenti estdangereux.

s ) Maintenir fermement la poignée pour effectuer une coupe partielle ou pour libérer

l’interrupteur alors que la tête de scie n’est pas encore complètement abaissée. Le

freinage de la scie pourrait abaisser soudainement la tête de scie, et poser des risques de

dommagescorporels.

Règles de sécurité additionnelles relatives aux scies à onglet

AVERTISSEMENT: ne pas insérer le bloc-piles dans l’outil tant que l’ensemble des

instructions n’a pas été lu etcompris.

•NE JAMAIS PLACER LES MAINS PLUS DE 100 mm (4 po) DE LA LAME.

•NE PAS UTILISER CETTE MACHINE tant qu’elle n’est pas complètement assemblée et installée,

conformément aux instructions données. Une machine incorrectement assemblée pose des

risques de dommages corporelsgraves.

•DEMANDER CONSEIL à un supérieur, un instructeur, ou à toute autre personne qualifiée, si

l’on n’est pas complètement familier avec l’utilisation de cette machine. Le savoir est source

desécurité.

•S’ASSURER QUE la lame tourne dans le bon sens. Les dents de la lame devraient pointer dans le

sens de rotation indiqué sur lascie.

•RESSERRER TOUS LES LEVIERS DE VERROUILLAGE, boutons et autres leviers avant toute

utilisation. Les dispositifs de fixation lâches posent des risques d’éjection rapide et violente de la

pièce àtravailler.

•S’ASSURER que l’ensemble lame et serre-lames est propre, que les côtés encastrés des serre-

lames se trouvent contre la lame et que la vis de l’arbre est resserrée soigneusement. Une lame

mal ou incorrectement arrimée pose des risques de dommages matériels etcorporels.

•NE PAS UTILISER LA SCIE SUR TOUTE AUTRE TENSION AUTRE QUE CELLE SPÉCIFIÉE.

Surchauffe, dommages à l’outil et dommages corporels pourraientsurvenir.

•NE RIEN BLOQUER CONTRE LE VENTILATEUR pour maintenir l’arbre de moteur. Des

dommages à l’outil et dommages corporels pourraientsurvenir.

•NE JAMAIS COUPER DES MÉTAUX ou de la maçonnerie. Ce genre de coupes pourrait faire

éclater les pointes au carbure de la lame et les projeter violemment posant des risques de

dommages corporelsgraves.

•NE JAMAIS LAISSER AUCUNE PARTIE DU CORPS ENTRER DANS LE SILLAGE DE LA LAME

SCIE, car cela pose des risques de dommagescorporels.

•NE JAMAIS APPLIQUER DE LUBRIFIANT À LAMES SUR UNE LAME EN MOUVEMENT. Lors de

l’application du lubrifiant, les mains pourraient rencontrer la lame et provoquer des dommages

corporelsgraves.

•NE PAS approcher les mains de la lame lorsque la scie est branchée sur une source

d’alimentation. L’activation accidentelle de la lame pose des risques de dommages

corporelsgraves.

•NE JAMAIS APPROCHER LES MAINS DE LA LAME, NI AUTOUR NI DERRIÈRE. Une lame peut

causer des dommages corporelsgraves.

•NE PAS PASSER LES MAINS SOUS LA SCIE à moins qu’elle ne soit à l’arrêt et débranchée. Tout

contact avec la lame de scie pose des risques de dommagescorporels.

•ARRIMER SOIGNEUSEMENT LA MACHINE À UN SUPPORT STABLE. Les vibrations

pourraient faire glisser la machine, ou bouger ou basculer, posant des risques de dommages

corporelsgraves.

•UTILISER UNIQUEMENT DES LAMES DE SCIE À COUPE TRANSVERSALE recommandées pour

scies à onglet. Pour optimiser les résultats, ne pas utiliser de lames à pointes de carbure avec un

angle d’attaque supérieur à 7 degrés. Ne pas utiliser des lames à creux de dent profonds. Elles

pourraient changer de course et toucher le carter, et poser des risques de dommages matériels

et/ou corporelsgraves.

•UTILISER UNIQUEMENT DES LAMES DE LA TAILLE ET DU TYPE CORRECTS indiqués pour cet

outil pour prévenir tout dommage matériel et/ou corporelgrave.

•VÉRIFIER QUE LES LAMES NE COMPORTENT AUCUNE FISSURE ni aucun autre dommage

avant chaque utilisation. Une lame fissurée ou endommagée peut se casser et des morceaux

pourraient être éjectés violemment, et causer des dommages corporels graves. Changer

immédiatement toute lame fissurée ouendommagée.

•NETTOYER LA LAME ET LES SERRE-LAMES avant chaque utilisation. Leur nettoyage

permettra de vérifier qu’ils ne comportent aucun dommage. Une lame ou un serre-lame fissuré

ou endommagé peut se casser et des morceaux pourraient être éjectés violemment, et causer des

dommages corporelsgraves.

•NE PAS UTILISER DE LAMES VOILÉES. Vérifier que la lame tourne correctement et sans

vibration. Une lame qui vibre pose des risques de dommages matériels et corporelsgraves.

•NE PAS utiliser de lubrifiant ou de nettoyant (particulièrement en vaporisateur ou en aérosol)

à proximité du carter en plastique. Le matériau en polycarbonate utilisé pour le carter peut être

attaqué par certains produitschimiques.

•MAINTENIR LES DISPOSITIFS DE PROTECTION EN PLACE et en bon état demarche.

•UTILISER SYSTÉMATIQUEMENT LA PLAQUE DE TRAIT ET LA REMPLACER SI ELLE EST

ENDOMMAGÉE. De petits débris s’accumulant sous la scie pourraient interférer avec la lame de

scie et causer l’instabilité de la pièce lors de lacoupe.

•UTILISER UNIQUEMENT LES SERRE-LAMES RECOMMANDÉS POUR CET OUTIL pour

prévenir tout dommage matériel et/ou corporelgrave.

•ÉLIMINER DES ORIFICES D’AÉRATION DU MOTEUR tout débris ou sciure. Des orifices

d’aération bouchés pourraient causer la surchauffe de la machine et l’endommager. Cela

pourrait aussi provoquer un court-circuit qui poserait de risques de dommages corporelsgraves.

•NE JAMAIS VERROUILLER L’INTERRUPTEUR EN POSITION DE MARCHE (ON), car cela pose

des risques de dommages corporelsgraves.

•NE JAMAIS MONTER SUR L’OUTIL. De sérieux dommages corporels pourraient en résulter si

l’outil basculait ou en cas de contact involontaire avec l’organe decoupe.
