Residual Risks; Package Contents - DeWalt DWE575 Original Instructions Manual

En g li sh
f) Blade depth and bevel adjusting locking
levers must be tight and secure before
making cut. If blade adjustment shifts while
cutting, it may cause binding and kickback.
g) Use extra caution when sawing into existing
walls or other blind areas. The protruding
blade may cut objects that can cause kickback.
lower Guard Safety instructions
a) Check lower guard for proper closing before
each use. Do not operate the saw if lower
guard does not move freely and close
instantly. Never clamp or tie the lower guard
into the open position. If saw is accidentally
dropped, lower guard may be bent. Raise the
lower guard with the retracting handle and
make sure it moves freely and does not touch
the blade or any other part, in all angles and
depths of cut.
b) Check the operation of the lower guard
spring. If the guard and the spring are not
operating properly, they must be serviced
before use. Lower guard may operate
sluggishly due to damaged parts, gummy
deposits, or a build-up of debris.
c) Lower guard should be retracted manually
only for special cuts such as "plunge cuts"
and "compound cuts". Raise lower guard
by retracting handle and as soon as blade
enters the material, the lower guard must be
released. For all other sawing, the lower guard
should operate automatically.
d) Always observe that the lower guard is
covering the blade before placing saw down
on bench or floor. An unprotected, coasting
blade will cause the saw to walk backwards,
cutting whatever is in its path. Be aware of the
time it takes for the blade to stop after switch is
released.
additional Safety instructions for
Circular Saws
• Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can
cause hearing loss.
• Wear a dust mask. Exposure to dust particles
can cause breathing difficulty and possible
injury.
• Do not use blades of larger or smaller
diameter than recommended. For the proper
blade rating refer to the technical data. Use only
the blades specified in this manual, complying
with EN 847-1.
• Never use abrasive cut-off wheels.
• Do not use water feed attachments.

• Use clamps or another practical way to
secure and support the workpiece to a
stable platform. Holding the work by hand or
against your body leaves it unstable and may
lead to loss of control.
• Keep your body positioned to either side
of the blade, but not in line with the saw
blade. KICKBACK could cause the saw to
jump backwards (see Causes and Operator
Prevention of Kickback and KICKBACK).
• Air vents often cover moving parts and
should be avoided. Loose clothes, jewellry or
long hair can be caught in moving parts.
