Package Contents; Residual Risks - DeWalt DW721KN Original Instructions Manual

• Before use, ensure the guards, brake, automatic return and locking
devices are functioning properly. Do not use the machine if these
devices are defective.
• When sawing a round workpiece ALWAYS use suitable jig or prism
to prevent rotation of the workpiece.
• Do not force the cutting action. (Stalling or partial stalling of the
motor can cause major damage.) Allow the motor to reach full
speed before cutting.
• Do not lift the machine by its worktable.
• Do not cut ferrous metals, non-ferrous metals or masonry.
• Do not apply lubricants to the blade when it is running.
• Do not place either hand in the blade area when the saw is
connected to the power source.
• Do not reach around behind the saw blade when in use.
• Do not place hands closer than 150 mm from the saw blade while
cutting.
• Do not use damaged or cracked saw blades.
• Replace the fence if damaged and/or no longer offers proper
support. The fence needs to be replaced periodically.
• ALWAYS ensure safe operation. The radial arm saws needs to be
fixed to the floor with diameter 8 mm bolts with a minimum length
of 80 mm.
WARNING! When cutting round workpiece it is necessary
to secure the workpiece against rotation by using jig or
holder.
• Do not use the machine in locations where the temperature may
reach –5˚ or 40˚ C. Suitable temperature is 20˚ C.
• Operators shall be instructed on factors influencing exposure to
noise (e.g. use of saw blade designed to reduce the emitted noise
and machine maintenance). Report faults in the machine, including
guards or saw blade, as soon as they are discovered. Ensure the
operator is adequately trained in use, adjustment and operation of
the machine.
• Connect the machine to a dust collection device when sawing
wood. Always consider factors which influence exposure of dust
such as:
– Type of material to be machined (chip board produces more
dust than wood).
– Correct adjustment of saw blade.
– Ensure that the local extraction as well as hoods, baffles and
chutes are properly adjusted.
• Always wear working gloves when servicing the machine, handling
rough workpieces or changing the saw blade.
• If a voltage failure occurs under idle condition, release the handle
immediately ensuring the saw head moves automatically back to its
rest position.
WARNING! Defect electrical wiring needs to be replaced
immediately.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, turn unit off
and disconnect machine from power source before
installing and removing accessories, before adjusting or
changing set-ups or when making repairs. Be sure the
switch is in the OFF position An accidental start-up can
cause injury.
• Report the failure and mark the machine in suitable form to prevent
other people from using the defective machine.
• When the saw blade is blocked due to abnormal feed force during
cutting, turn the machine off and disconnect it from power supply.
Remove the workpiece and ensure that the saw blade runs free.
Turn the machine on and start new cutting operation with reduced
feed force.

Residual Risks

The following risks are inherent to the use of radial arm saws:
In spite of the application of the relevant safety regulations and the
implementation of safety devices, certain residual risks cannot be
avoided.
These are:
– Injuries caused by touching rotating parts.
– 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.
Markings on Tool
The following pictograms are shown on the tool:
Read instruction manual before use.
