Manual

ENGLISH

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 90° are encountered, the saw can be quickly and easily adjusted for

them. Use the crown molding fence accessory to maintain the angle at which the molding will

be on thewall.

Instructions for Cutting Crown Molding Angled Between the

Fence and Base of the Saw for All Cuts

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

installed) is against the fence and the top of the molding is resting on the base of the saw, as

shown in FigureU.

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

thesaw.

Special Cuts

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

THEFENCE.

Aluminum Cutting (Fig. A, V, W)

ALWAYS USE THE APPROPRIATE SAW BLADE MADE ESPECIALLY FOR CUTTING ALUMINUM. These

are available at your local DeWALT retailer or DeWALT service center. Certain workpieces, due to

their size, shape or surface finish, may require the use of a clamp or fixture to prevent movement

during the cut. Position the material so that you will be cutting the thinnest cross section, as

shown in FigureV. FigureW illustrates the wrong way to cut these extrusions. Use a stick wax

cutting lubricant when cutting aluminum. Apply the stick wax directly to the saw blade

before cutting. Never apply stick wax to a movingblade.

The wax, available at most hardware stores and industrial mill supply houses, provides proper

lubrication and keeps chips from adhering to theblade.

Be sure to properly secureworkpiece.

Refer to Saw Blades under Accessories for correct sawblade.

Bowed Material (Fig. X, Y)

When cutting bowed material always position it as shown in FigureX and never like that

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

completion of thecut.

Cutting Plastic Pipe or Other Round Material

Plastic pipe can be easily cut with your saw. It should be cut just like wood and CLAMPED OR

HELD FIRMLY TO THE FENCE TO KEEP IT FROM ROLLING. This is extremely important when

making anglecuts.

Cutting Large Material (Fig. L)

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 motor 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 L. 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





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

Yes you should. Although the amount of noise produced by a mitre saw can vary between brands and models, long term exposure to loud noise can cause permanent hearing damage. That is why it is a good idea to wear hearing protection.

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.
