WARNING: Never use a light socket.
Never connect the live (L) or neutral (N) wires to the earth pin
marked E or .
Fitting a mains plug to 115 V units (U.K. & Ireland only)
• The plug should be fi tted by a competent person. If you are in doubt,
contact an authorized D WALT repair agent or a qualifi ed electrician.
E
The wires are coloured according to the following code:
live = brown
neutral = blue
• Do not connect the blue or brown wire to the earth terminal in the plug.
Connect as follows:
brown to terminal marked 'L'
blue to terminal marked 'N'
The plug fi tted should comply with BS EN 60309 (BS4343), 32 Amps.
WARNING: Always ensure that the cable clamp is correctly and
securely fitted to the sheath of the cable.
Using an Extension Cable
If an extension cable is required, use an approved extension cable suitable
for the power input of this tool (see technical data).
The minimum conductor size is 1.5 mm
When using a cable reel, always unwind the cable completely.
Also refer to the table below.

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 0.25 Ω,
disturbances are unlikely to occur.

ASSEMBLY
WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, turn off tool and
disconnect from power source before attempting to move it,
changing accessories or making any adjustments accept as
written in laser adjustment instructions.
Unpacking (fi g. B)
• Remove the saw from the packing material carefully using the carrying
handle (10).
• Release the rail lock knob (16), and push the saw head back to lock it
in the rear position.
• Press down the operating handle (11) and pull out the lock down pin
(22), as shown.
• Gently release the downward pressure and allow the arm to rise to its
full height.
Bench mounting (fi g. C)
• Holes (25) are provided in all four feet to facilitate bench mounting.
Two different sized holes are provided to accommodate different sizes
of bolts. Use either hole; it is not necessary to use both. Always mount
your saw fi rmly to prevent movement. To enhance the portability, the
tool can be mounted to a piece of 12.5 mm or thicker plywood which
can then be clamped to your work support or moved to other job sites
and reclamped.
• When mounting your saw to a piece of plywood, make sure that the
mounting screws do not protrude from the bottom of the wood.
The plywood must sit fl ush on the work support. When clamping the
saw to any work surface, clamp only on the clamping bosses where
the mounting screw holes are located. Clamping at any other point will
interfere with the proper operation of the saw.
• To prevent binding and inaccuracy, be sure the mounting surface is not
warped or otherwise uneven. If the saw rocks on the surface, place a
thin piece of material under one saw foot until the saw is fi rm on the
mounting surface.
Mounting the saw blade (fi g. D1 - D5)
WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, turn off tool and
disconnect from power source before attempting to move it,
changing accessories or making any adjustments accept as
written in laser adjustment instructions.
Never depress the spindle lock button while the blade is under
power or coasting.
Do not cut ferrous metal (containing iron or steel) or masonry or
fiber cement product with this mitre saw.
• Depress the head lock up release lever (12) to release the lower guard
(2), then raise the lower guard as far as possible.
• Using the Torx bit (33) in the handgrip end of the supplied blade
spanner (23), loosen the guard bracket screw (34) suffi ciently to allow
the angled corner piece (35) to pass between the head of the screw
and the guard. This will allow the guard bracket (36) to be raised
enough to permit access to the blade locking screw (37).
• With the lower guard held in the raised position by the guard bracket
scew (34) depress the spindle lock button (14) with one hand, then use
the supplied blade spanner (23) in the other hand to loosen the left-
hand threaded blade locking screw (37) by turning clockwise.
WARNING: To use the spindle lock, press the button as shown
and rotate the spindle by hand until you feel the lock engage.
Continue to hold the lock button in to keep the spindle from
turning (fig. D4).
• Remove the blade locking screw (37) and the outside arbor collar (38).
