Electrical Safety; Voltage Drops; Power Supply; Cutting Capacity - DeWalt D28720 Original Instructions Manual

The D28720 chop saw is a professional power tool.
DO NOT let children come into contact with the
tool. Supervision is required when inexperienced
operators use this tool.
• This product is not intended for use by persons
(including children) suffering from diminished
physical, sensory or mental abilities; lack of
experience, knowledge or skills unless they are
supervised by a person responsible for their
safety. Children should never be left alone with
this product.

Electrical Safety

The electric motor has been designed for one
voltage only. Always check that the power supply
corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate.
Your D WALT tool is double insulated in
E
accordance with EN 61029; therefore no
earth wire is required.
WARNING: 127 V units have to
be operated via a fail-safe isolating
transformer with an earth screen
between the primary and secondary
winding
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced
by a specially prepared cord available through the
D WALT service organisation.

Mains Plug Replacement

(Middle East and Africa)
If a new mains plug needs to be fitted:
• Safely dispose of the old plug.
• Connect the brown lead to the live terminal in
the plug.
• Connect the blue lead to the neutral terminal.
Workpiece Shape
90° Cutting Angle A = 125 mm
45° Cutting Angle A= 115 mm
Follow the fitting instructions supplied with good
quality plugs. Recommended fuse: 13 A.
Using an Extension Cable
If an extension cable is required, use an approved
3–core extension cable suitable for the power input
of this tool (see Technical Data).The minimum
conductor size is 1.5 mm
30 m.
When using a cable reel, always unwind the cable
completely.
Connecting to the Mains
The mains supply to be used for this machine must
be equipped with a 16 A cut-out fuse with time delay.

Voltage Drops

Inrush currents cause short-time voltage drops.
Under unfavourable power supply conditions, other
equipment may be affected.
If the system impedance of the power supply is lower
than 0.11 Ω, disturbances are unlikely to occur.

Power Supply

Be sure your power supply agrees with the
nameplate marking. A voltage decrease of more
than 10% willcause a loss of power and overheating.

Cutting Capacity

The wide vise opening and high pivot point provide
cutting capacity for many large pieces. Use the
cutting capacity chart to determine total maximum
size of cuts that can be made with a new wheel.
