sure the switch is in the OFF position. An accidental start-up can cause injury.

Pop-off Brushes

The motor will be automatically shut off when the carbon brushes are nearly worn out and the tool needs servicing. The carbon brushes are not user- serviceable. Take the tool to an authorised DEWALT repair agent.

Lubrication

IN HORIZONTAL APPLICATIONS

Adjust the fluid flow as required using the flow regulator (m) (fig. 1).

Add more cutting fluid if the shavings become blue.

VERTICAL AND OVERHEAD APPLICATIONS

Dip the cutter in cutting paste or apply an appropriate spray.

LUBRICATING THE FEED TRAVEL (FIG. 9)

The feed travel should be lubricated periodically with grease to ensure smooth operation.

Raise the motor unit to the highest position possible.

Lubricate the dove-tail guide way (dd) at both sides.

Lubricate the gear rack (ee).

After repeated use, the gear rack may become loose. If necessary, adjust the 5 self-locking set screws at the left side. Tighten screws in series until the gear rack moves freely in the dove-tail guide but does not allow the motor to wobble.
