Electrical Connection

Be sure your power source agrees with the nameplate marking. 120 volts, AC means that

your saw will operate on alternating current. Do not operate with DC power. A voltage

decrease of 10 percent or more will cause a loss of power and overheating. All D

WALT tools

are factory tested. If this tool does not operate, check the power supply.

This miter saw operates on either two 60V battery packs or by using the D

WALT corded

power supply.

Using the Corded Power Supply

The D

WALT corded power supply is designed to

Fig. 1

provide power for D

WALT 120V Max* FLEXVOLT

cordless tools. Insert the corded power supply into the

miter saw battery slot (refer to Installing and

Removing the Corded Power Supply) and plug the

power supply into an AC outlet. The power supply will

act as the power source to the tool. Your D

WALT

corded power supply should only be used with

standard household 120 VAC, 60 Hz power or a

120VAC 60Hz generator.

The corded power supply is suitable for use with both

grounded and double insulated 120V AC tools. When the power supply is utilized with a

grounded tool, the tool inlet will be equipped with a ground prong that allows the ground path

from the tool to connect to the power supply. When the power supply is used with this double

insulated miter saw, no ground connection is made from the tool to the power supply as no

ground connection is required.

Additional Specific Usage Instructions

The corded power supply may become warm to the touch during use. This is a normal

condition and does not indicate a problem.

IMPORTANT. The power supply is not user serviceable. There are no user serviceable parts

inside the power supply.

Servicing at an authorized service center is required to avoid damage to static sensitive

internal components.

Batteries and Chargers

The battery pack is not fully charged out of the carton. Before using the battery pack and

charger, read the safety instructions below and then follow charging procedures outlined.

When ordering replacement battery packs, be sure to include the catalog number andvoltage.

Your tool uses a D

WALT charger. Be sure to read all safety instructions before using

your charger. Consult the chart at the end of this manual for compatibility of chargers and

Do I need to wear hearing protection when using a mitre saw? Verified

Can I store power tools in a shed or garage? Verified

In general, you can store power tools in a shed or garage, even if it sometimes freezes there. However, it is better for the lifespan of the power tool to store it in a dry place without major temperature fluctuations. In a shed or garage, differences in temperature can cause condensation to form, which can cause rust. In addition, tools that run on batteries last shorter and do not charge as well at very low temperatures. To be sure how your power tool needs to be stored, always thoroughly read the user manual.
