Wall Mounting - DeWalt DCS577 Instruction Manual

b. Check to see if receptacle is connected to a light
switch which turns power off when you turn out
the lights;
c. If charging problems persist, take the tool, battery
pack and charger to your local service center.
3. You may charge a partially used pack whenever you
desire with no adverse effect on the battery pack.
Charger Cleaning Instructions

WARNING: Shock hazard. Disconnect the charger
from the AC outlet before cleaning. Dirt and grease
may be removed from the exterior of the charger using
a cloth or soft non‑metallic brush. Do not use water or
any cleaning solutions.

Wall Mounting

Some D WALT chargers are designed to be wall mountable
e
or to sit upright on a table or work surface. If wall mounting,
locate the charger within reach of an electrical outlet, and
away from a corner or other obstructions which may impede
air flow. Use the back of the charger as a template for the
location of the mounting screws on the wall. Mount the
charger securely using drywall screws (purchased separately)
at least 1" (25.4 mm) long, with a screw head diameter of
0.28–0.35" (7–9 mm), screwed into wood to an optimal
depth leaving approximately 7/32" (5.5 mm) of the screw
exposed. Align the slots on the back of the charger with the
exposed screws and fully engage them in the slots.

ASSEMBLY AND ADJUSTMENTS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, turn unit off and remove the battery pack
before making any adjustments or removing/
installing attachments or accessories. An
accidental start‑up can cause injury.
Saw Hook (Fig. D)

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, Do not use the saw with the saw hook rotated
below the foot plate.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury from the saw
falling on operators or bystanders, make sure the saw
is supported securely when using the hook to hang the
saw from a rafter, joist or other elevated support.
Your saw has a convenient saw hook
to hang from a joist, rafter, or other suitable, stable structure.
The saw hook folds flat against the tool body when not
in use.
To use the saw hook, push down on the hook to rotate it
away from the handle until it latches into position.
To return the saw hook to its stored position, pull the hook
up until it latches against the tool body.

Cutting Depth Adjustment (Fig. A, F, G)
NoTE: The maximum depth of cut for this saw is 2‑7/16"
(61 mm) at 90 °.
The length of cut markings on the side of the foot plate
are accurate at full depth of cut only. Setting the saw at the
proper cutting depth keeps blade friction to a minimum,
removes sawdust from between the blade teeth, results in
cooler, faster sawing and reduces the chance of kickback.
For the most efficient cutting action, set the depth
adjustment so that half of a blade tooth will project below
the material to be cut (refer to Figure G). This distance is from
the tip of the tooth
to inset of Figure G). This keeps blade friction at a minimum,
removes sawdust from the cut, results in cooler, faster sawing
and reduces the chance of kickback. A method for checking
for correct cutting depth is shown in Figure G. Lay a piece
of the material you plan to cut along the side of the blade,
as shown, and observe how much tooth projects beyond
the material.
Bevel Angle Adjustment (Fig. A, H)
The full range of the bevel adjustment is from 0˚ to 53˚.
Detents are located at 22.5˚ and 45˚. The angle quadrant
is graduated in increments of 1˚. On the front of the saw
is a bevel angle adjustment mechanism which consists of
a calibrated angle quadrant
lever
or fine adjustment

Foot Plate Adjustment for 90˚ Cuts (Fig. I)
If Additional Adjustment is Needed
1. Align the dust port 21 over upper blade guard
as shown.
2. Insert two dust port screws
tighten securely.
1. Hold the saw firmly. Lift the depth adjustment locking
lever 3 to move foot plate to obtain the desired depth
of cut.
2. Lower the depth adjustment locking lever and tighten
securely to lock the depth of cut before operating saw.

17 to achieve better accuracy in cutting.
1. Lift the bevel adjustment lever
desired angle by aligning the pointer with the desired
angle mark.
2. Push the bevel adjustment lever down and tighten
securely to lock the angle.
1. Adjust the saw to 0˚ bevel.
2. Retract blade guard. Place the saw on blade side.
3. Lift bevel adjustment lever. Place a square against the
blade and foot plate to adjust the 90˚ setting.
4. Move the adjustment screw, located on the bottom of
the foot plate (Fig. I), so that the foot plate will stop at the
proper angle.
