GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all
instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions 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.
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 the battery pack 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. 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
ENGLISH
3
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.
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.
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.
Safety Instructions for All Saws
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 piece being cut in your hands or
across your leg. 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 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 shock the operator.
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 do not match the mounting hardware of the saw
will run eccentrically, 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.
Further Safety Instructions for All Saws
Causes and Operator Prevention of
Kickback:
ʵ 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;
ʵ 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;
ʵ 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 saw
blade is binding, 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 cut. If
blade adjustment shifts while cutting, it may cause
binding and kickback.
g ) Use extra caution when sawing into existing
walls or other blind areas. The protruding blade
may cut objects that can cause kickback.
ENGLISH

Lower Guard Function Safety
Instructions
a ) Check 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 ) Lower guard should be retracted manually
only for special cuts such as “plunge cuts”
and “compound cuts. Raise lower guard by
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.
Additional Safety Information
WARNING: ALWAYS use safety glasses. Everyday
eyeglasses are NOT safety glasses. Also use face or
dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. ALWAYS WEAR
CERTIFIED SAFETYEQUIPMENT:
ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3),
ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection,
NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA respiratoryprotection.
WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding,
sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction
activities contains chemicals known to the State
of California to cause cancer, birth defects or
other reproductive harm. Some examples of these
chemicalsare:
lead from lead-based paints,
crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other
masonry products, and
arsenic and chromium from chemically-
treatedlumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how
often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to
these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with
approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are
specially designed to filter out microscopicparticles.
Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power
sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other
construction activities. Wear protective clothing and
wash exposed areas with soap and water. Allowing
dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may
promote absorption of harmfulchemicals.
WARNING: Use of this tool can generate and/
or disperse dust, which may cause serious and
permanent respiratory or other injury. Always use
NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection
appropriate for the dust exposure. Direct particles
away from face andbody.
WARNING: Always wear proper personal hearing
protection that conforms to ANSI S12.6 (S3.19)
during use. Under some conditions and duration
of use, noise from this product may contribute to
hearingloss.
CAUTION: When not in use, place tool on its side
on a stable surface where it will not cause a
tripping or falling hazard. Some tools with large
battery packs will stand upright on the battery pack
but may be easily knockedover.
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.

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.

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.
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 in an air temperature 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.

7
using the lower blade
retracting lever
6
and place the blade on the saw
spindle against the inner clamp washer, making sure
that the blade will rotate in the proper direction (the
direction of the rotation arrow on the saw blade and the
teeth must point in the same direction as the direction
of rotation arrow on the lower blade guard). Do not
assume that the printing on the blade will always be
facing you when properly installed. When retracting
the lower blade guard to install the blade, check the
condition and operation of the lower blade guard to
assure that it is working properly. Make sure it moves
freely and does not touch the blade or any other part, in
all angles and depths of cut.

2. Remove the blade clamping screw
8
and outer clamp
washer
17
only. Remove old blade.
3. Clean any sawdust that may have accumulated in the
guard or clamp washer area and check the condition
and operation of the lower blade guard as previously
outlined. Do not lubricate this area.
4. Select the proper blade for the application (see
Blades). Always use blades that are the correct size
(diameter) with the proper size and shape center hole
for mounting on the saw spindle. Always assure that the
maximum recommended speed (rpm) on the saw blade
meets or exceeds the speed (rpm) of the saw.
5. Follow steps 2 through 5 under To Install the Blade,
making sure that the blade will rotate in the proper
direction.
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
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.
Blades
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 direction before
using, and always use a clean, sharp blade.
WARNING: Do not cut metal, plastic, concrete,
masonry or fiber cement materials 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.
RECOMMENDED BLADE TYPES
Combination Framing 5/8" Round arbor, 24 teeth

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
ENGLISH
11
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 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
(Fig.O).
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 as shown in FigureI. 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.
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.
Cutting Depth Adjustment (Fig. A, H, I)
1. Hold the saw firmly and loosen (clockwise) the depth
adjustment lever
4
and move shoe (
5
, Fig.A) to obtain
the desired depth of cut.
2. Make sure the depth adjustment lever 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.

Bevel Angle Adjustment (Fig. A, J)
The full range of the bevel adjustment is from 0° to 57°. 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 lever
10
.
To set the saw for a bevel cut
1. Loosen (counterclockwise) the bevel adjustment lever
10
and tilt shoe (
5
, Fig.A) to the desired angle by
aligning the pointer with the desired angle mark.
2. Retighten lever firmly (clockwise).
Fig. J
10
Shoe Adjustment for 90°Cuts (Fig. J, K)
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 lever (
10
, Fig.J). Place a
square against the blade and shoe to adjust the 90°
setting.
4. Turn the calibration screw
18
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.
Fig. K
18
Kerf Indicator (Fig. L)
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
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.
Fig. L
9
Workpiece Support (Fig. M–O)
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M
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!
Fig. M
Figure M 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.
Fig. N
Fig. O
ENGLISH
13
Cutting (Fig. 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M illustrates the RIGHT way to cut off the end of a
board. Always clamp work. Don’t try to hold short pieces by
hand! 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 manually (as is necessary for starting pocket cuts),
always use the retracting lever.
WARNING: When cutting thin strips, be careful to
ensure that small cutoff pieces don’t hang up on the
inside of the lower blade guard.
Ripping (Fig. P)
Ripping is the process of cutting wider boards into narrower
strips – cutting grain lengthwise. Hand guiding is more
difficult for this type of sawing and the use of a
DeWALT
rip
fence is recommended.
Fig. P
Pocket Cutting (Fig. Q)
WARNING: Never tie the lower blade guard in a raised
position. Never move the saw backwards when pocket
cutting. This may cause the saw to raise up off the
work surface, which could cause injury.
Fig. Q
12
A pocket cut is one that is made in a floor, wall or other flat
surface.
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
before starting saw.
6. Start the motor and gradually lower the saw until its
shoe rests flat on the material to be cut. Advance saw
along the cutting line until cut is completed.
7. Release the trigger switch and allow the blade to stop
completely before withdrawing the blade from the
material.
8. When starting each new cut, repeat the above steps.
Hang Hook (Fig. A)
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, do not use the tool's hang hook to hang the
tool from your body. DO NOT use the hang hook for
tethering or securing the tool to a person or object
during use. DO NOT suspend tool overhead or suspend
objects from the hanghook.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury from the
circular saw falling on operators or bystanders, make
sure it is supported securely when using the hang
hook, or resting in a secure and stable location when
not in use. Be sure to keep the area below clear to
reduce the risk of the tool or off-cut material falling
and striking someone or something below.
The circular saw has a convenient hang hook
16
that
allows it to hang on a suitable, stable structure between
uses. The hang hook is not for tethering or securing the tool
to a person or object during use when elevated.

AVERTISSEMENTS DE SÉCURITÉ GÉNÉRAUX
POUR LES OUTILS ÉLECTRIQUES
AVERTISSEMENT! lire tous les avertissements de
sécurité et toutes les directives. Le non-respect
des avertissements et des directives pourrait se
solder par un choc électrique, un incendie et/ou une
blessuregrave.
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.
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.
FRANÇAIS

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 ) Débrancher la fiche de la source d’alimentation
et/ou du bloc-piles de l’outil électrique avant de
faire tout réglage ou changement d’accessoire
ou avant de ranger l’outil. 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 ) Entretien des outils électriques. 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.
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.
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électrique.
Consignes de sécurité propres à toutes
les scies
PROCÉDURES DE COUPE
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.
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 additionnelles de sécurité
propres à toutes les scies
Causes des rebonds et méthodes de prévention
pouvant être utilisées par l’utilisateur :
ʵ 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.
ʵ 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.
ʵ 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 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 ) Prendre des précautions supplémentaires lors
de coupes dans des murs existants ou dans toute
zone à visibilité réduite. La lame saillante peut
couper des objets, et ceci peut entraîner un rebond.
Directives de sécurité propres au
fonctionnement du carter inférieur
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.
