3) PERSONAL SAFETY a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection.
DANGER: a) Keep hands away from cutting area and the blade. Keep your second hand on auxiliary handle or motor housing. If both hands are holding the saw, they cannot be cut by the blade. b) Do not reach underneath the workpiece. The guard cannot protect you from the blade below the workpiece. c) Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness of the workpiece. Less than a full tooth of the blade teeth should be visible below the workpiece. d) Never hold piece being cut in your hands or across your leg.
LOWER GUARD SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS a) Check lower guard for proper closing before each use. Do not operate the saw if lower guard does not move freely and close instantly. Never clamp or tie the lower guard into the open position. If saw is accidentally dropped, lower guard may be bent. Raise the lower guard with the retracting handle and make sure it moves freely and does not touch the blade or any other part, in all angles and depths of cut. b) Check the operation of the lower guard spring.

products, and (CCA). Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles. Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities.
1. Hold the saw firmly. Lift the depth adjustment locking lever (B) to 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.
The front of the saw foot plate (D) has a 0˚ kerf indicator (F) and a 45˚ kerf indicator (G) for vertical and bevel cutting. The kerf indicators enable you to guide the saw along the cutting lines penciled on the workpiece. The indicator aligns with the left (outer) side of the saw blade. The moving blade making the slot or “kerf” cut falls to the right of the indicator. Position the saw along the penciled cutting line so that the kerf falls into the waste or surplus material.
Q Q TO INSTALL THE BLADE (FIG. 1, 10, 11) 1. Loosen and remove the blade clamping screw (R) with the wrench provided, by turning it clockwise as indicated by the arrow on the outer clamp washer (S). 2. Remove outer clamp washer (S). 3. Using the lower blade guard retracting lever (C), retract the lower blade guard (E). IMPORTANT: When retracting the lower blade guard to install the blade, check the condition and operation of the lower blade guard to assure that it is working properly.
S T U TO REPLACE THE BLADE (FIG. 10–12) 1. Depress the spindle lock button (J) while turning the saw spindle with the blade wrench provided until the blade lock engages and the blade stops rotating. 5. Place outer clamp washer (S) on saw spindle (U) with the large flat surface against the blade and the wording on the outer clamp washer facing you as shown in Figure 11. 6.
WARNING: To minimize the risk of eye injury, always use eye protection. Carbide is a hard but brittle material. Foreign objects in the work piece such as wire or nails can cause tips to crack or break. Only operate saw when proper saw blade guard is in place. Mount blade securely in proper rotation before using, and always use a clean, sharp blade. CAUTION: Do not cut ferrous metals (steel), masonry, glass, masonry-type planking, cement board or tile with this saw. Do not use abrasive wheels or blades.
C. Cutting off a cantilevered or overhanging piece of material from the bottom up in a vertical direction can cause kickback. The falling cut off piece can pinch the blade. D. Cutting off long narrow strips (as in ripping) can cause kickback. The cut off strip can sag or twist closing the kerf and pinching the blade. E. Snagging the lower guard on a surface below the material being cut momentarily reduces operator control. The saw can lift partially out of the cut increasing the chance of blade twist. 2.
FIG. 15 FIG. 14 DON’T support board or panel AWAY from the cut. SUPPORT DO support board or panel NEAR the cut. firm grip with both hands on the saw and position your body and arm to allow you to resist kickback if it occurs. Figure 13 shows proper sawing position. Note that hands are kept away from cutting area. To avoid kickback, DO support board or panel NEAR the cut (Fig. 14). DON’T support board or panel away from the cut (Fig. 15).
INSTALL RIP GUIDE IN THIS DIRECTION RIPPING (FIG. 16) Ripping is the process of cutting wider boards into narrower strips – cutting grain lengthwise. Hand guiding is more difficult for this type of sawing and the use of either DEWALT DW3278 rip guide or DWS5100 dual port rip guide is recommended (Fig. 17). FIG. 16 IF SAW STALLS, RELEASE THE TRIGGER AND BACK THE SAW UNTIL IT IS LOOSE. BE SURE BLADE IS STRAIGHT IN THE CUT AND CLEAR OF THE CUTTING EDGE BEFORE RESTARTING.
