Additional Safety Information - DeWalt DWE7492 Manual De Instrucciones

Do not have any part of your body in line with the blade. Personal injury may occur. Stand
•
to either side of the blade.
Never perform layout, assembly or set-up work on the table/work area when the
•
machine is running. A sudden slip could cause a hand to move into the blade. Severe injury
can result.
Never perform any adjustments while the saw is running such as fence repositioning or
•
removal, bevel lock adjustment, or blade height adjustment.
Clean the table/work area before leaving the machine. Lock the switch in the "OFF"
•
position and disconnect tool from power source to prevent unauthorized use.
Always lock the fence and bevel adjustment before cutting.
•
Avoid overheating the saw blade tips. Keep material moving and parallel with the fence. Do
•
not force work into the blade.
If cutting plastic materials, avoid melting the plastic.
•
Do not leave a long board (or other workpiece) unsupported so the spring of the board
•
causes it to shift on the table resulting in loss of control and possible injury. Provide
proper support for the workpiece, based on its size and the type of operation to be performed.
Hold the work firmly against the fence and down against the table surface.
If this saw makes an unfamiliar noise or if it vibrates excessively, cease operating
•
immediately, turn unit off and disconnect tool from power source until the problem has
been located and corrected. Contact a D
service centre or other qualified service personnel if the problem can not be found.
Do not operate this machine until it is completely assembled and installed according to the
•
instructions. A machine incorrectly assembled can cause serious injury.
Never attempt to cut a stack of loose pieces of material which could cause loss of
•
control or kickback. Support all materials securely.
Saw Blades

WARNING: To minimise the risk of kickback and to ensure proper cutting, the splitter and
riving knife must be the proper thickness for the blade used. If a different blade is used, check
the blade body (plate) thickness and the blade kerf (cutting) width marked on the blade or
on the blade packaging. The splitter and riving knife thickness must be greater than the body
thickness and less than the kerf width.
Do not use saw blades that do not conform to the dimensions stated in the Optional
•
Accessories. Do not use any spacers to make a blade fit onto the spindle. Use only the blades
specified in this manual, complying with EN847-1, if intended for wood and similar materials.
• Consider applying specially designed noise-reduction blades.
• Do not use high steel (HS) saw blades.
• Do not use cracked or damaged saw blades.
• Ensure that the chosen saw blade is suitable for the material to be cut.
• Always wear gloves for handling saw blades and rough material. Saw blades should be carried in
a holder wherever practicable

Additional Safety Information


WARNING: ALWAYS use safety glasses. Everyday eyeglasses are NOT safety glasses.
Also use face or dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. ALWAYS WEAR CERTIFIED
SAFETY EQUIPMENT:
• ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3),
• ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection,
• NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA respiratory protection.

WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other
construction activities contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer,
birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paints,
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce
your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety
equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and
•
other construction activities. Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas with
soap and water. Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may promote
absorption of harmful chemicals.

WARNING: Use of this tool can generate and/or disperse dust, which may cause serious
and permanent respiratory or other injury. Always use NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory
protection appropriate for the dust exposure. Direct particles away from face and body.

WARNING: Always wear proper personal hearing protection that conforms to ANSI
S12.6 (S3.19) during use. Under some conditions and duration of use, noise from this
product may contribute to hearing loss.

CAUTION: When not in use, place tool on its side on a stable surface where it will not
cause a tripping or falling hazard. Some tools with large battery packs will stand upright
on the battery pack but may be easily knocked over.
Air vents often cover moving parts and should be avoided. Loose clothes, jewelry or long
•
hair can be caught in moving parts.

Do not operate this tool for long periods of time. Vibration caused by tool action may be
•
harmful to your hands and arms. Use gloves to provide extra cushion and limit exposure by
taking frequent rest periods.
An extension cord must have adequate wire size for safety. The smaller the gauge number
•
of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cable, that is, 16 gauge has more capacity than
18 gauge. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and
overheating. When using more than one extension to make up the total length, be sure each
individual extension contains at least the minimum wire size. The following table shows the
correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the
next heavier gauge. The lower the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

WARNING: If the plug or power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer
or its representative or by an equally qualified person to avoid danger.
The label on your tool may include the following symbols. The symbols and their definitions are

Be sure your power supply agrees with the nameplate marking. Voltage decrease of more than
10% will cause loss of power and overheating. D
not operate, check power supply.
ASSEMBLY

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn unit off and disconnect
it from power source before making any adjustments or removing/installing
attachments or accessories. An accidental start-up can cause injury.
Unpacking
• Remove the saw from the packaging material carefully.
• The machine is fully assembled except for the rip fence, blade guard assembly, miter gauge,
blade wrenches, and dust extraction reducer port.
• Finalize the assembly following the instructions as described below.

WARNING: Always keep the push stick in its place when not in use.
Mounting the Saw Blade (Fig. A, C)

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. An accidental start-up can cause injury.

WARNING: When mounting the saw blade, wear protective gloves. The teeth of the
saw blades are very sharp and can be dangerous.

WARNING: The saw blade MUST be replaced as described in this section. ONLY use saw
blades as specified under optional accessories. We suggest DT4226. NEVER fit other
saw blades.

WARNING: Do not touch the saw blade after working before it has cooled. The saw
blade becomes very hot while working.
NoTE: This tool has blade installed from factory.
1. Raise the saw blade arbor to its maximum height by turning the blade height adjustment
6
wheel clockwise.
