Prior To Operation - DeWalt D27107 Traducido De Las Instrucciones Originales

The fence is reversible: the workpiece can be guided along the 75 mm or along the
11 mm face to allow the use of a push stick when ripping thin workpieces (Fig O5).
1. To set for 11 mm, loosen the fence clamping knobs
the clamping support .
114
2. Turn the fence and re-engage the clamping support in the slot as shown (Fig. O5).
3. To use with the full height of 75 mm, slide the fence into the clamping support with the
wide face in the vertical position (Fig. O4).

WARNING: Use the 11 mm profile for ripping low workpieces to allow access between the
blade and the fence for the push stick. The rear end of the fence should be level with the
front of the riving knife.
Changing from Saw Bench to Mitre Saw Mode (Fig. A3, E, L1, L2)
1. Remove the parallel fence , if fitted (Fig. A3).

2. Remove the upper blade guard 21 .
3. Replace the under-table guard 63 (Fig. E).
4. Proceed as described in the section Turning the Sawhead and Table Over.
5. Loosen the riving knife cap screw 96
the blade guard (Fig. L1). nOTE: Tighten the cap screw after the riving knife has been

removed to prevent it from interfering with the blade guard.
6. Lower the blade guard.
7. Place the riving knife 20 in its storage position in the inside of the base (Fig. A3).

OPERATION
Instructions for Use

WARNING: Always observe the safety instructions and applicable regulations.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn tool off and
disconnect tool from power source before making any adjustments or removing/
installing attachments or accessories. An accidental start-up can cause injury.

WARNING:
• Ensure the material to be sawn is firmly secured in place.
• Apply only a gentle pressure to the tool and do not exert side pressure on the
saw blade.
• Avoid overloading.
Ensure the machine is placed to satisfy your ergonomic conditions in terms of table height
and stability. The machine site shall be chosen so that the operator has a good overview and
enough free surrounding space around the machine that allows handling of the workpiece
without any restrictions.
To reduce effects of vibration make sure the environment temperature is not too cold,
machine and accessory is well maintained and the workpiece size is suitable for this machine.

Prior to Operation:

• Install the appropriate saw blade. Do not use excessively worn blades. The maximum
rotation speed of the tool must not exceed that of the saw blade.
• Do not attempt to cut excessively small pieces.
• Allow the blade to cut freely. Do not force.
• Allow the motor to reach full speed before cutting.
• Make sure all locking knobs and clamp handles are tight.
Switching On and Off (Fig. A1, P1–P3)
This machine has two independent switching systems. In mitre saw mode, the trigger
switch 11 is used (Fig. P1). In saw bench mode, the on/off switch
Integrated in the switch box is a motor overload protector with manual reset. In case of a
power shut-off, proceed as follows:
• Make sure the machine has been switched off.
• Press the reset button .
142
Mitre Saw Mode (Fig. P1)
A hole 122 is provided in the trigger for insertion of a padlock to lock the switch.
• To run the tool, press the trigger switch
• To stop the tool, release the switch.
Saw Bench Mode (Fig. P2, P3)
The on/off switch offers multiple advantages:
- no-volt release function: should the power be shut off for some reason, the switch has
to be deliberately reactivated.
- extra safety: the hinged safety enclosure plate

button as pressure on the front of the plate will depress the stop button.
• To switch the machine on, press the green start button
• To switch the machine off, press the red stop button
Locking the Switches
• In order to avoid unauthorised use of the machine, lock both switches using padlocks.

To remove the left fence 7 , unscrew the fence adjustment knob

Always reinsert the fence in position for right cuts.
Sawing in Mitre Saw Mode
It is dangerous to operate without guarding. Guards must be in position when sawing.
• Make sure that the under-table guard does not become clogged with sawdust.
• Always clamp the workpiece when cutting non-ferrous metals.
General Handling
• In the mitre saw mode, the sawhead is automatically locked in the upper "park" position.
• Squeezing the guard release lever will unlock the sawhead. Moving the sawhead down
retracts the movable lower guard.
• Never seek to prevent the lower guard returning to its park position when the cut
is completed.
• The minimum length of offcut material is 10 mm.
• When cutting short material (min. 190 mm to the left or the right of the blade), the use of
the optional material clamp is recommended.
• When cutting UPVC sections, a supporting piece made out of timber with a
complementary profile should be placed beneath the material being cut to provide the
correct level of support.
Clamping the Workpiece (Fig. A5, M)

WARNING: A workpiece that is clamped, balanced and secure before a cut may become
unbalanced after a cut is completed. An unbalanced load may tip the saw or anything the
saw is attached to, such as a table or workbench. When making a cut that may become
unbalanced, properly support the workpiece and ensure the saw is firmly bolted to a
stable surface. Personal injury may occur.

WARNING: The clamp foot must remain clamped above the base of the saw whenever
the clamp is used. Always clamp the workpiece to the base of the saw – not to any other
part of the work area. Ensure the clamp foot is not clamped on the edge of the base of
the saw.

CAUTION: Always use a work clamp to maintain control and reduce the risk of workpiece
damage and personal injury, if your hands are required to be within 160 mm of the blade
during the cut.
Use the material clamp 39 provided with your saw. Other aids such as spring clamps, bar
clamps or C-clamps may be appropriate for certain sizes and shapes of material. The left or
right fence will slide from side to side to aid in clamping.
To Install Clamp
1. Insert it into the hole behind the fence. The clamp should be facing toward the back of the
mitre saw. Ensure the groove on the clamp rod is fully inserted into the base of the mitre
saw. If the groove is visible, the clamp will not be secure.
2. Rotate the clamp 180º toward the front of the mitre saw.
3. Loosen the knob to adjust the clamp up or down, then use the fine adjust knob to firmly
clamp the workpiece.
nOTE: Place the clamp on the right side of the fence when beveling. ALWAYS MAKE DRY
RUNS (UNPOWERED) BEFORE FINISH CUTS TO CHECK THE PATH OF THE BLADE. ENSURE THE
CLAMP DOES NOT INTERFERE WITH THE ACTION OF THE SAW OR GUARDS
Vertical Straight Cross Cut (Fig. Q1)
1. Loosen the mitre knob 79
2. Engage the mitre latch at the 0° position and tighten the mitre knob.
3. Place the wood to be cut against the fence
4. Take hold of the operation handle
5. Press the trigger switch
11
6. Depress the head to allow the blade to cut through timber and enter the saw kerf
7. After completing the cut, release the switch and wait for the saw blade to come to a
complete stop before returning the head to its upper rest position.
Vertical Mitre Cross-Cut (Fig. Q2)
1. Loosen the mitre knob

right to the required angle.
2. The mitre latch will automatically locate at 15°, 22.5°, 35.3° and 45° both left and right.
If any intermediate angle is required hold the head firmly and lock by tightening the
mitre knob.
3. Always ensure that the mitre knob is locked tightly before cutting.
4. Proceed as for a vertical straight cross-cut.

WARNING: When mitring the end of a piece of wood with a small off-cut, position
the wood to ensure that the off-cut is to the side of the blade with the greater angle to
the fence:
left mitre, off-cut to the right
right mitre, off-cut to the left.
Bevel Cross-Cut (Fig. A2, Q3)
Bevel angles can be set from 48° left to 2° right and can be cut with the rotating table set
between zero and a maximum of 45° mitre position left or right.
