Brushes

WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, DO NOT TIE, TAPE, OR OTHERWISE LOCK THE ON/OFF SWITCH ON while “running in”.

HOLD BY HAND ONLY.

Inspect carbon brushes regularly by unplugging tool, removing the brush inspection cap and withdrawing the brush assembly. Keep brushes clean and sliding freely in their guides. Always replace a used brush in the same orientation in the holder as it was prior to removal. Carbon brushes have varying symbols stamped into their sides, and if the brushes are worn down to the line closest to the spring, they must be replaced. Use only identical DEWALT brushes. Always replace both brushes. Use of the correct grade of brush is essential for proper operation of electric brakes. New brush assemblies are available at your local DEWALT certified service center.The tool should be allowed to “run in” (run at no load without blade) for 10 minutes before use to seat new brushes. This is especially important for saws equipped with electric brakes, which may be erratic in operation until the brushes are properly seated (worn in).
