Maintenance - DeWalt DW310 Originalanweisungen

Proper hand position requires one hand on the side
front grip (k), with the other hand on the back
handle (m).
Switching On and Off (fi g. 1)
To run the tool, press the variable speed switch (a).
The pressure exerted on the variable speed switch
determines the tool speed.
To stop the tool, release the switch.
Always switch off the tool when work is finished and
before unplugging.
SETTING THE ELECTRONIC SAWING SPEED
(FIG. 1) - DW311
The speed control dial (b) can be used for advance
setting of the required range of speed.
Turn the electronic speed control dial to the required
level. The required setting depends on the thickness
and kind of material.
Use high speeds for sawing soft materials such as
wood. Use low speeds for sawing metal.
WARNING: After using the tool for
an extended period on low speed
settings, run it for approx. 3 minutes on
maximum no-load speed.
Cutting Wood
1. Clamp the workpiece securely and remove all
nails and metal objects.
2. Holding the tool with both hands, work with the
saw shoe pressed against the workpiece.
Plunge Cutting in Wood (fi g. 5)
1. Rest the saw shoe on the workpiece in such
a position that the blade forms an appropriate
angle for the plunge cut.
2. Switch the tool on and slowly feed in the blade.
Make sure that the saw shoe remains in contact
with the workpiece at all times.
Pocket Cuts
1. Measure and mark the required pocket cut.
2. Using a narrow saw blade rest the bottom of
the saw shoe on the workpiece and make sure
that the blade is positioned on the cutting line.
If necessary, e.g. in confined spaces, use the
outer edge of the saw shoe as your guideline.
3. Switch on the tool and feed the blade into the
material at full speed, holding the tool firmly
against the workpiece.
Cutting Metal
When cutting thin metal always stabilize the
workpiece with wood on both sides. This guarantees
clean cuts and prevents damaging of the material.
For long, straight cuts draw a line on the workpiece.
Apply a thin film of lubricant along the cutting line,
switch on the tool and follow the cutting line.
Cutting Plastics
Always work at reduced speed. Carry out a test cut
to check whether the material is sensitive to heat.
Cutting Masonry
WARNING: When sawing asbestos
cement hazardous dust may be
produced. Follow the statutory
guidelines and observe the
recommendations issued by the
asbestos cement manufacturers.
Sawing Up to a Projecting Edge
(fi g. 6)
Using a conventional blade installed upside down,
cut up to the projected edge.
