c. Overreaching or operating the saw with poor body
control (out of balance), can result in twisting the blade.
d. Changing hand grip or body position while cutting can
result in blade twist.
e. Backing up the saw to clear blade can lead to twist.
4. MaTERIaLs THaT REQUIRE EXTRa aTTEnTIOn
a. Wet timber
b. Green timber (material freshly cut or not kiln dried)
c. Pressure treated timber (material treated with
preservatives or anti-rot chemicals)
5. UsE OF DULL OR DIRTY BLaDEs
a. Dull blades cause increased loading of the saw. To
compensate, an operator will usually push harder which
further loads the unit and promotes twisting of the blade
in the kerf. Worn blades may also have insufficient body
clearance which increases the chance of binding and
increased loading.
6. LIFTInG THE saW WHEn MakInG a BEVEL cUT
a. Bevel cuts require special operator attention to proper
cutting techniques – especially guidance of the saw. Both
blade angle to the base plate and greater blade surface
in the material increase the chance for binding and
misalignment (twist) to occur.
7. REsTaRTInG a cUT WITH THE BLaDE TEETH JaMMED
aGaInsT THE MaTERIaL
a. The saw should be brought up to full operating speed
before starting a cut or restarting a cut after the unit has
been stopped with the blade in the kerf. Failure to do so
can cause stalling and kickback.
Any other conditions which could result in pinching, binding,
twisting, or misalignment of the blade could cause kickback.
Refer to the sections Further Safety Instructions for All Saws
and Blades for procedures and techniques that will minimise
the occurrence of kickback.
Depth of Cut Adjustment (Fig. E–F)
1. Raise the depth adjustment lever
2. To obtain the correct depth of cut, align the appropriate
mark on the depth adjustment strap
the upper blade guard.
3. Tighten the depth adjustment lever.
4. For the most efficient cutting action using a carbide tipped
saw blade, set the depth adjustment so that about one half
of a tooth projects below the surface of the wood to be cut.
5. A method of checking for the correct cutting depth is
shown in Figure F. Lay a piece of the material you plan to
cut along the side of the blade, as shown in the figure, and
observe how much tooth projects beyond the material.
Adjusting Depth Adjustment Lever (Fig. E)
It may be desirable to adjust the depth adjustment lever

Bevel Angle Adjustment (Fig. A, G)
The bevel angle adjustment mechanism can be adjusted
between 0° and 57°.
To achieve better accuracy in cutting, use the fine adjustment
markings located on the pivot bracket

Bevel Detent (Fig. A, G)
The DCS572 is equipped with a bevel detent feature. As you

desired angle, retighten the lever

Cut Length Indicator (Fig. A)
The markings on the side of the base plate
of the slot being cut into the material at the full depth of the cut.
The markings are in increments of 5 mm.
Kerf Indicator (Fig. I)
The front of the saw base plate has a kerf indicator
and bevel cutting. This indicator enables you to guide the saw
along cutting lines penciled on the material being cut. The kerf
indicator lines up with the left (outer) side of the saw blade,
which makes the slot or "kerf" cut by the moving blade fall to the
right of the indicator. Guide along the penciled cutting line so
that the kerf falls into the waste or surplus material.
