Your saw has a convenient saw hook that allows the saw to hang from a joist, rafter, or other suitable, stable structure. The saw hook folds flat against the tool body when not in use.

To use the saw hook, push down on the hook to rotate it away from the handle until it latches into position.

To return the saw hook to its stored position, pull the hook up until it latches against the tool body.

Twist-lock Connector (DWS535T)

The DWS535T is equipped with a twist-lock connector as shown in Figure 3. This prevents the cord from unplugging if the cord is inadvertantly pulled. Only plug the twist-lock connector into a 3-wire extension cord with a female connector.

For the most efficient cutting action, set the depth adjustment so that half of a blade tooth will project below the material to be cut. This distance is from the tip of the tooth to the bottom of the gullet in front of it (refer to inset of Figure 5).This keeps blade friction at a minimum, removes sawdust from the cut, results in cooler, faster sawing and reduces the chance of kickback. A method for checking for correct cutting depth is shown in Figure 5. Lay a piece of the material you plan to cut along the side of the blade, as shown, and observe how much tooth projects beyond the material.

move foot plate to obtain the desired depth of cut.

2. Lower the depth adjustment locking lever and tighten securely to

lock the depth of cut before operating saw.

The length of cut markings on the side of the foot plate are accurate at full depth of cut only. Setting the saw at the proper cutting depth keeps blade friction to a minimum, removes sawdust from between the blade teeth, results in cooler, faster sawing and reduces the chance of kickback.

The full range of the bevel adjustment is from 0˚ to 53˚. Detents are located at 22.5˚ and 45˚. The angle quadrant is graduated in increments of 1˚. On the front of the saw is a bevel angle adjustment mechanism
