Saw Blades

WARNING: Riving knifes must be matched to saw blade dimensions in order to function effectively. Refer to Riving Knife Selection.

NOTE: THIS SAW IS INTENDED FOR USE ONLY WITH SAW BLADES 10" (254 mm) IN DIAMETER. Refer to Fig. 26.

NOTE: This saw is not intended for use with dado blades and molding cutters. Personal injury may occur.

1.The saw blade furnished with your new saw is a 10" (254 mm) combination

blade, used for crosscutting (across the grain) and ripping (with the grain) through the material. The center hole to fit on the arbor is 5/8" (16 mm) diameter (.625"). This blade will produce a good quality cut for most applications.

2.There are many types of blades available to do specific and special jobs such as crosscut only, rip only, hollow ground, thin plywood, paneling, etc.

3.Use only saw blades designed for

maximum safe operating speeds of 5,000 RPM or greater.

4.Saw blades should always be kept sharp. It is recommended that you locate a reputable sharpening service to sharpen your blades when needed.

CAUTION: Abrasive wheels or blades (including diamond) should not be used on this saw.

7. Use the arbor wrench (supplied) to hold the nut

 

and tighten it by turning it clockwise. Reposition the

 

wrench on the arbor nut and repeat as necessary

Y

until the nut and washer are securely fastened

 

against the blade).

 

NOTE: Different types of blades make different kerfs (width of cuts). Therefore, it is necessary

to check adjustment of rip scale when changing blades. Replacement blade MUST not exceed

the thickness stated on the riving knife. The riving knife provided with the saw is 2.2 mm thick.

Riving Knife Selection

WARNING: To minimize the risk of kickback and to ensure proper cutting, the riving knife must be the proper thickness for the blade used.

The riving knife supplied with this table saw is the correct size for the blade supplied with the saw.

If a different blade is used check the blade body (plate) thickness and the blade kerf (cutting) width marked on the blade or on the blade packaging. The riving knife thickness must be greater than the body thickness and less than the kerf width as shown in Figure 29. If it is not, the riving knife MUST be replaced with one that has the correct thickness.

The riving knife provided with this saw is marked as follows (Fig. 30):

0.087" (2.2 mm) THICK RIVING KNIFE. ONLY USE FOR 10" (254 mm) Ø BLADE WITH 0.094" (2.4 mm) MIN. KERF WIDTH AND 0.067" (1.75 mm) MAX. BODY THICKNESS.

The riving knife available as an accessory marketed by DEWALT is marked as follows: 0.110" (2.8 mm) THICK RIVING KNIFE. ONLY USE FOR 10" (254 mm) Ø BLADE WITH 0.118" (3.0 mm) MIN. KERF WIDTH AND 0.098" (2.5 mm) MAX. BODY THICKNESS
