Mitering
WARNING: Miter angles greater
than 45˚ may force the guard into
the saw blade causing damage to
the guard and personal injury. Before
starting the motor, test the operation
by feeding the work piece into the
guard. If the guard contacts the blade,
place the work piece under the guard,
not touching the blade, before starting
the motor.
CAUTION: Certain work piece
shapes, such as molding may not lift
the guard properly. Feed the work piece slowly to start the cut. If the guard contacts the
blade, place the work piece under the guard, not touching the blade, before starting the
motor.
This operation is the same as crosscutting except the miter gauge is locked at an angle
other than 0°. Hold the work piece FIRMLY against the miter gauge and feed the work piece
slowly into the blade (to prevent the work piece from moving). See Figure 29.
Miter Gauge Operation
To set your miter gauge, loosen the lock handle and move the miter gauge to the desired
angle.
Compound Mitering
This is a combination of bevel crosscutting
and mitering. Follow the instructions for both
bevel crosscutting and mitering.
Dust Collection
Your table saw is equipped with a dust shroud
and dust collection port. For best results,
connect a vacuum to the port at the rear of
the saw.
After extended use, the saw's dust collection
system may become clogged. To clear the
dust collection system:
1. Unplug the saw.
2. Turn the saw on its side, so the bottom, open part of the unit is accessible.
3. Open the dust access door (UU) shown in Figure 30 by removing the wing screws (VV).
Clean out the excess dust, and re-secure the access door with the wing screws.
Lubrication
1. All motor bearings are permanently lubricated
at the factory and no additional lubrication is
needed.
2. The height adjustment gear may require
periodic cleaning and lubrication (Fig. 31). If
you have difficulty raising or lowering
the blade, contact a D
WALT authorized
E
service center.
