4.Release the blade guard (its contact with the work will keep it in position to open freely as you start the cut). Remove hand from guard lever and firmly grip auxilary handle (L), as shown in Figure 18. Position your body and arm to allow you to resist kickback if it occurs.

5.Make sure blade is not in contact with cutting surface before starting saw.

6.Start the motor and gradually lower the saw until its foot plate rests flat on the material to be cut. Advance saw along the cutting line until cut is completed.

7.Release trigger and allow blade to stop completely before withdrawing the blade from the material.

8.When starting each new cut, repeat as above.

Maintenance

warning: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn tool off and disconnect tool from power source before making any adjustments or removing/installing attachments or accessories.

Cleaning

Warning: Blow dirt and dust out of all air vents with clean, dry air at least once a week. To minimize the risk of eye injury, always wear ANSI Z87.1 approved eye protection when performing this.

WARNING: Never use solvents or other harsh chemicals for cleaning the non-metallic parts of the tool. These chemicals may weaken the plastic materials used in these parts. Use a cloth dampened only with water and mild soap. Never let any liquid get inside the tool; never immerse any part of the tool into a liquid.

Lubrication

Self lubricating ball and roller bearings are used in the tool and relubrication is not required. However, it is recommended that, once a year, you take or send the tool to a certified service center for a thorough cleaning, inspection and lubrication of the gear case.

To check oil

WARNING: Hot surfaces. Risk of burn. Motor and surrounding parts are very hot. Do not touch. Allow motor to cool prior to servicing.

WARNING: Be careful, gear oil may be hot! Contact with hot oil may result in personal injury.

NOTICE: Ensure there is gear oil in the saw before operating the saw or tool damage may occur.

NOTE: Gear oil contains substances that are regulated and must be disposed of in accordance with local, state, provincial and federal laws and regulations.

1.Place saw on a stable, level surface so the table of the saw sits flush against the surface.

2.With the wrench provided, turn the oil plug counterclockwise to remove.

3.Due to settling, even though the correct amount of oil may be present in the crankcase it may not be visible looking into the oil fill hole.

a.With the tool turned off and disconnected from the power source, rotate blade and look into oil fill hole.

b.If no oil is visible as the gears turn, it needs to be added.

4.To add oil, slowly add 85W-140 gear oil or equivalent until it

reaches the lowest plug hole thread. 85W-140 gear oil or equiva- lent is available from your local DeWALT service center.

NOTE: When adding oil, allow the oil to flow very slowly. Overflow may occur if the oil is added too quickly.
