washer against the blade. (Blade must be installed with the printed

position. (Screw has right hand threads and must be turned
clockwise to tighten.)

blade stops rotating.

wrench.

lock is engaged. Serious damage to your saw will result.

motor, excessive splintering, and could increase the possibility of
kickback. Recommended blades for use with your tool are available at
extra cost from your local retailer or D WALT service center. For

CAUTION: Do not use abrasive discs or blades for cutting ferrous
(steel) materials, glass or tile.
WARNING: To minimize the risk of eye injury, always use eye
protection. Carbide is a hard but brittle material. Foreign objects in the
work piece such as wire or nails can cause tips to crack or break. Only
operate tool when proper saw blade guard is in place. Mount blade
securely in proper rotation before using, and always use a clean, sharp
blade.
A dull blade will cause slow, inefficient cutting, overload on the saw
motor, excessive splintering and increase the possibility of kickback. It
is a good practice to keep extra blades on hand so that sharp blades
are available while the dull ones are being sharpened (See "SAWS-
SHARPENING" in the Yellow Pages). In fact, many lower priced blades
can be replaced with new ones at very little cost over the sharpening
price.
Hardened gum on the blade will slow down the cutting. This gum can
best be removed with trichlorethylene, kerosene, turpentine or oven
cleaner.
