Optional Accessories - DeWalt DW721 Manual De Instrucciones

• For 45° left or right, engage the mitre latch lever (9) and lock with the
mitre clamp lever (10).
• For intermediate angles, use the mitre clamp lever only.
• Proceed as for cross-cutting.
In the case of left-hand mitre, you may have to slide the fence
and the strips to the left (fig. M3).
Bevel cuts (fig. L, M1& M4)
• Set the arm as for a 0° cross-cut (fig. M1).
• Raise the blade well above the table surface.
• Release the bevel clamp lever (34) and pull out the bevel latch (35) (fig. M4).
• Tilt the motor to the required angle on the bevel scale (20).
• For 90° or 45° right, engage the bevel latch (35) and lock with the bevel
clamp lever (34).
• For intermediate angles, use the bevel clamp lever only.
• Proceed as for a vertical cross-cut.
Ripping (fig. L, H1, I1, I2 & M5)
The motor can be locked in in-rip or out-rip position as shown in figures
I1 & I2 to adapt the machine to narrow and wide workpieces respectively.
• Lock the yoke in pulled out position using the riplock.
• Release the yoke clamp lever (50) and press the yoke latch (51) to
rotate the motor to the appropriate position until it locks in place (fig. I1).
• Tighten the yoke clamp lever (50) and position the fence accordingly.
• Position the yoke along the arm for the desired width of cut, using the
rip scale (74) and lock it in position using the riplock (fig. I2).
• Adjust the blade guard as described above and turn the dust extraction
adaptor (56) away from your face. Remember that ripping requires the
use of the riving knife (59) and the anti-kickback fingers (57) (fig. H1).
• Using the push stick (88), slowly feed the workpiece into the blade,
keeping it firmly pressed onto the table and against the fence (fig. M5).
Allow the teeth to cut and do not force the workpiece through the
blade. The blade speed should be kept constant.
Always use a push stick.
Bevel ripping (fig. L & M6)
• Set the machine in the bevel crosscut position.
• Rotate the yoke into rip position.
• Position the yoke for the correct ripping width.
• Angle the anti-kickback fingers (57) so that they will be flat on the
workpiece and lower the riving knife (59).
• Proceed as for ripping.
Compound mitre (fig. L & M7)
This cut is a combination of a mitre and a bevel cut.
• Set the required bevel angle.
• Swing the arm to the required mitre position.
• Proceed as for mitre cuts.
Always switch off the tool when work is finished and before unplugging.
Increased cutting capacity (fig. N1 & N2)
In the ripping mode and the vertical cross-cutting mode, the cutting depth
can be increased by cutting the workpiece twice from both opposite
parallel sides. The accuracy achieved depends on correct adjustment of
the machine and alignment of the blade.
• Set the machine in the required position.
• Place the workpiece against the fence.
• Cut at least halfway across the material to perform the first cut (fig. N1).
• Turn the workpiece upside down and place it against the fence with
the opposite side facing up.
• Following the same cutting line, cut through the material for the second
cut to meet the first (fig. N2).

Advanced cutting applications
Your radial arm saw can be used for a wide variety of advanced
applications, such as coving/hollowing.
Coving/hollowing (fig. O)
• Tilt the blade to the required angle, rotate the yoke beneath the arm
and position the blade above the workpiece where required.
Remove the workpiece and lower the blade to make a shallow cut.
Lower the anti-kickback fingers as for bevel ripping.
Keeping the workpiece against the fence, proceed as for ripping.
Make shallow cuts only!
Dust extraction (fig. H1)
The machine is provided with a dust extraction adaptor (56).
• Whenever possible, connect a dust extraction device designed in
accordance with the relevant regulations regarding dust emission.
• When cross-cutting, position a DE3455 dust collection shute (option)
behind the line of cut.

Optional accessories

Prior to assembling any accessories always unplug the machine.
The router bracket (fig. P1 - P6)
The router bracket allows you to attach a D
thus extending its versatility to accurate, decorative woodworking. There is
a choice of two mounting brackets.
Mounting the DE3453 router bracket (fig. P1 & P2)
• Remove the blade guard assembly and the blade.
• Position the router bracket (89) over the end of the arbor as shown in
figure P1 and secure it with the wing nut (60).
Mounting the DE1212 router bracket (fig P3 - P6)
• Remove the blade guard assembly and the blade.
• Position the router bracket (90) over the end of the arbor as shown in
figure P3 and secure it with the wing nut (60).
• Replace the guide rods of the parallel fence of your router by the
support bars (91) supplied with the attachment:
- Use the small diameter bars for DW609/DW613/DW615 (fig. P4)
- Use the large diameter bars for DW620/DW621/DW624/DW625/
DW629 (fig. P5).
• Tighten the locking screws (92) (fig. P6).
Always make sure your router is properly centred on the bars
and secured in the bracket.
Routing (fig. P7 & P8)
The router can be set to the required angle and pulled across the
workpiece using the handle (2) (fig. P7) or guided along the stationary
cutter (fig. P8).
• Check that the router bracket is mounted rigidly.
• If required, fit the outer flange (40) in figure G1 on the arbor and clamp
the router bracket against the motor using the arbor nut (38) in figure G1.
Do not overtighten the arbor nut.
Always feed the workpiece against the rotating cutter.
