aGaInsT THE MaTERIaL
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 Additional Specific Safety Rules for
Circular Saws and Blades for procedures and techniques that
will minimize the occurrence of kickback.
Depth of Cut Adjustment (Fig. F–H)
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 H. 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. G)
It may be desirable to adjust the depth adjustment lever
may loosen in time and hit the base plate before tighten ing.
To Tighten the Lever:
1. Hold depth adjustment lever
locknut 20 .
2. Adjust the depth adjustment lever by rotating it in the
desired direction about 1/8 of a revolution.
3. Retighten nut.
Bevel Angle Adjustment (Fig. I)
The bevel angle adjustment mechanism
between 0° and 57°.
To achieve better accuracy in cutting, use the fine adjustment
markings located on the pivot bracket
1. Raise the bevel adjustment lever
2. Tilt the base plate to the desired angle by aligning the fine
bevel pointer with the desired angle mark on the pivot
21
bracket 22 .
3. Lower the bevel adjustment lever to retighten.
Bevel Detent (Fig. I)
The DWE575 and DWE576 are equipped with a bevel detent
feature. As you tilt the base plate you will hear a click and feel
the base plate stop at both 22.5 and 45 degrees. If either of
these is the desired angle, retighten the lever
If you desire another angle, continue tilting the base plate until
the coarse bevel pointer 23 or the fine pointer
the desired mark.

Cut Length Indicator (Fig. J)
The markings on the side of the base plate show the length of
the slot being cut into the material at the full depth of the cut.
The markings are in increments of 5 mm.
Mounting and Adjusting the Parallel Fence
(Fig. K)
The parallel fence 24 is used for cutting parallel to the edge of
the workpiece.
Mounting
1. Slacken the parallel fence adjustment knob
parallel fence to pass.
2. Insert the parallel fence 24
3. Tighten the parallel fence adjustment knob
Adjusting
1. Slacken the fence adjustment knob
fence 24 to the desired width.
The adjustment can be read on the parallel fence scale.
2. Tighten the fence adjustment knob
Mounting the Dust Extraction Spout
(Fig. A, F, L)
Your DWE575/DWE576 circular saw is supplied with a dust
extraction spout.
To Install Dust Extraction Spout
1. Fully loosen depth adjustment lever
2. Place base plate 9 in the lowest position.
3. Align the left half of the dust extraction spout
upper blade guard 13 as shown. Be sure to insert the tab
into the casting notch on the tool. When installed correctly,
it will snap fully over the original depth of cut pointer.
4. Align the right-hand piece with the left.
5. Insert screws and tighten securely.
Guide Rail System (DWE576, Fig. M)
Guide rails, available in different lengths as accessories, allow
the use of the circular saw for precise, straight clean cuts and
simultaneously protect the workpiece surface against damage.
In conjunction with additional accessories, exact angled cuts,
mitre cuts and fitting work can be completed with the guide
rail system.
Clamps 30 are available to secure the guide rail
workpiece (Fig. M). Use of these clamps
guide rail 28 is securely attached to the workpiece
working. Once the guide rail is set to the cut line and securely
fixed to the workpiece, there is no movement during cutting.
IMPORTanT : The height scale on the unit is set for using the
saw without a guide rail. When using the saw on the guide rail
the difference in height will be approximately 5.0 mm.
