Prior To Operation - DeWalt DCS391 Traduction De La Notice D'instructions Originale

EN GLI SH
WARNING: 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. A dull blade
will cause slow inefficient cutting, overload on
the saw motor, excessive splintering, and could
increase the possibility of kickback.
If you need assistance regarding blades, please call
contact your local service center listed on the back
of the manual.

Prior to Operation

• Make sure your battery pack is (fully) charged.
• Make sure the guards have been mounted
correctly. The saw blade guard must be in
closed position.
• Make sure the saw blade rotates in the direction
of the arrow on the blade.
• Do not use excessively worn saw blades.
OPERATION
WARNING: Turn unit off and
disconnect battery pack before
installing and removing accessories,
before adjusting or when making
repairs. Lock the trigger switch when
the tool is not in use and when storing
the tool.
WARNING: Always wear proper
personal hearing protection. Under
some conditions and duration of use,
noise from this product may contribute
to hearing loss.
Instructions for Use
WARNING:
• Always observe the safety
instructions and applicable
regulations.
• Ensure the material to be sawn is
secured in place.
• Apply only a gentle pressure to the
tool and do not exert side pressure
on the saw blade. If possible, work
with the saw shoe pressed against
the workpiece. This prevents damage
to the blade and stops the tool from
jerking and vibrating.
• Avoid overloading.
• Let the blade run freely for a few
seconds before starting the cut.
