• Check periodically that the motor air slots are clean and free of chips.
• Replace the kerf plate when worn.
• Disconnect the machine from the mains before carrying out any
maintenance work or when changing the blade.

still running and the head is not in the rest position.
• When possible, always mount the machine to a bench.
Residual risks
The following risks are inherent to the use of saws:
- injuries caused by touching the rotating parts
In spite of the application of the relevant safety regulations and the
implementation of safety devices, certain residual risks cannot be avoided.
These are:
- Impairment of hearing.
- Risk of accidents caused by the uncovered parts of the rotating saw blade.
- Risk of injury when changing the blade.
- Risk of squeezing fingers when opening the guards.
- Health hazards caused by breathing dust developed when sawing
wood, especially oak, beech and MDF.

Electrical safety

The electric motor has been designed for one voltage only. Always check
that the power supply corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate.
Your tool is double insulated in accordance with EN 61029;
therefore no earth wire is required.
Mains plug replacement
(U.K. & Ireland only)
• Should your mains plug need replacing and you are competent to do
this, proceed as instructed below. If you are in doubt, contact an
authorized D WALT repair agent or a qualified electrician.
E
• Disconnect the plug from the supply.
• Cut off the plug and dispose of it safely; a plug with bared copper
conductors is dangerous if engaged in a live socket outlet.
• Only fit 13 Amperes BS1363A approved plugs fitted with the correctly
rated fuse (1).
• The cable wire colours, or a letter, will be marked at the connection
points of most good quality plugs. Attach the wires to their respective
points in the plug (see below). Brown is for Live (L) (2) and Blue is for
Neutral (N) (4).
• Before replacing the top cover of the mains plug ensure that the cable
restraint (3) is holding the outer sheath of the cable firmly and that the
two leads are correctly fixed at the terminal screws.
Never use a light socket.
Never connect the live (L) or neutral (N) wires to the earth pin
marked E or .
For 115 V units with a power rating exceeding 1500 W, we recommend to
fit a plug to BS4343 standard.
