Safety Instructions For Mitre Saws; Additional Safety Rules For Mitre Saws - DeWalt DCS365 Traducido De Las Instrucciones Originales

e) Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or
modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable
behaviour resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
f) Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excessive
temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature above 130 °C may
cause explosion.
Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery
g)
pack or tool outside the temperature range specified in the
instructions. Charging improperly or at temperatures outside the
specified range may damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.
6) SERVICE
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person
using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the
safety of the power tool is maintained.
b) Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery packs
should only be performed by the manufacturer or authorized service
providers.

Safety Instructions for Mitre Saws

a) Mitre saws are intended to cut wood or wood-like products,
they cannot be used with abrasive cut-off wheels for cutting
ferrous material such as bars, rods, studs, etc. Abrasive dust
causes moving parts such as the lower guard to jam. Sparks from
abrasive cutting will burn the lower guard, the kerf insert and other
plastic parts.
Use clamps to support the workpiece whenever possible. If
b)
supporting the workpiece by hand, you must always keep
your hand at least 100 mm (4") from either side of the saw
blade. Do not use this saw to cut pieces that are too small to
be securely clamped or held by hand. If your hand is placed too
close to the saw blade, there is an increased risk of injury from blade
contact.
c) The workpiece must be stationary and clamped or held
against both the fence and the table. Do not feed the
workpiece into the blade or cut "freehand" in any way.
Unrestrained or moving workpieces could be thrown at high speeds,
causing injury.
d) Push the saw through the workpiece. Do not pull the saw
through the workpiece. To make a cut, raise the saw head
and pull it out over the workpiece without cutting, start the
motor, press the saw head down and push the saw through
the workpiece. Cutting on the pull stroke is likely to cause the saw
blade to climb on top of the workpiece and violently throw the blade
assembly towards the operator.
e) Never cross your hand over the intended line of cutting either
in front or behind the saw blade. Supporting the workpiece
"cross handed" i.e. holding the workpiece to the right of the saw
blade with your left hand or vice versa is very dangerous.
f) Do not reach behind the fence with either hand closer than
100 mm (4") from either side of the saw blade, to remove
wood scraps, or for any other reason while the blade is
spinning. The proximity of the spinning saw blade to your hand may
not be obvious and you may be seriously injured.
Inspect your workpiece before cutting. If the workpiece is
g)
bowed or warped, clamp it with the outside bowed face
toward the fence. Always make certain that there is no gap
between the workpiece, fence and table along the line of the
cut. Bent or warped workpieces can twist or shift and may cause
binding on the spinning saw blade while cutting. There should be no
nails or foreign objects in the workpiece.
h) Do not use the saw until the table is clear of all tools, wood
scraps, etc., except for the workpiece. Small debris or loose
pieces of wood or other objects that contact the revolving blade can
be thrown with high speed.
i) Cut only one workpiece at a time. Stacked multiple workpieces
cannot be adequately clamped or braced and may bind on the
blade or shift during cutting.
j) Ensure the mitre saw is mounted or placed on a level, firm
work surface before use. A level and firm work surface reduces
the risk of the mitre saw becoming unstable.
k) Plan your work. Every time you change the bevel or mitre
angle setting, make sure the adjustable fence is set correctly
to support the workpiece and will not interfere with the blade
or the guarding system. Without turning the tool "ON" and with
no workpiece on the table, move the saw blade through a complete
simulated cut to assure there will be no interference or danger of
cutting the fence.
l) Provide adequate support such as table extensions, saw
horses, etc. for a workpiece that is wider or longer than the
table top. Workpieces longer or wider than the mitre saw table can
tip if not securely supported. If the cut-off piece or workpiece tips, it
can lift the lower guard or be thrown by the spinning blade.
m) Do not use another person as a substitute for a table
extension or as additional support. Unstable support for the
workpiece can cause the blade to bind or the workpiece to shift
during the cutting operation pulling you and the helper into the
spinning blade.
n) The cut-off piece must not be jammed or pressed by any
means against the spinning saw blade. If confined, i.e. using
length stops, the cut-off piece could get wedged against the blade
and thrown violently.
o) Always use a clamp or a fixture designed to properly support
round material such as rods or tubing. Rods have a tendency to
roll while being cut, causing the blade to "bite" and pull the work with
your hand into the blade.
p) Let the blade reach full speed before contacting the
workpiece. This will reduce the risk of the workpiece being thrown.
q) If the workpiece or blade becomes jammed, turn the mitre
saw off. Wait for all moving parts to stop and disconnect the
plug from the power source and/or remove the battery pack.
Then work to free the jammed material. Continued sawing with
a jammed workpiece could cause loss of control or damage to the
mitre saw.
r) After finishing the cut, release the switch, hold the saw head
down and wait for the blade to stop before removing the
cut-off piece. Reaching with your hand near the coasting blade is
dangerous.
s) Hold the handle firmly when making an incomplete cut or
when releasing the switch before the saw head is completely
in the down position. The braking action of the saw may cause the
saw head to be suddenly pulled downward, causing a risk of injury.

Additional Safety Rules for Mitre Saws

WARNING: Do not insert the battery into the unit until
complete instructions are read and understood.
DO NOT OPERATE THIS MACHINE until it is completely
•
assembled and installed according to the instructions. A machine
incorrectly assembled can cause serious injury.
• OBTAIN ADVICE from your supervisor, instructor, or another
qualified person if you are not thoroughly familiar with the operation
of this machine. Knowledge is safety.
• MAKE CERTAIN the blade rotates in the correct direction. The
teeth on the blade should point in the direction of rotation as marked
on the saw.
TIGHTEN ALL CLAMP HANDLES, knobs and levers prior to
•
operation. Loose clamps can cause parts or the workpiece to be
thrown at high speeds.
• BE SURE all blade and blade clamps are clean, recessed sides
of blade clamps are against blade and arbor screw is tightened
securely. Loose or improper blade clamping may result in damage to
the saw and possible personal injury.
• DO NOT OPERATE ON ANYTHING OTHER THAN THE
DESIGNATED VOLTAGE for the saw. Overheating, damage to the
tool and personal injury may occur.
DO NOT WEDGE ANYTHING AGAINST THE FAN to hold the
•
motor shaft. Damage to tool and possible personal injury may occur.
NEVER CUT METALS or masonry. Either of these can cause the
•
carbide tips to fly off the blade at high speeds causing serious injury.
NEVER HAVE ANY PART OF YOUR BODY IN LINE WITH THE
•
PATH OF THE SAW BLADE. Personal injury will occur.
• NEVER APPLY BLADE LUBRICANT TO A RUNNING BLADE.
Applying lubricant could cause your hand to move into the blade
resulting in serious injury.
• DO NOT place either hand in the blade area when the saw is
connected to the power source. Inadvertent blade activation may
result in serious injury.
• NEVER REACH AROUND OR BEHIND THE SAW BLADE. A
blade can cause serious injury.
• DO NOT REACH UNDERNEATH THE SAW unless it is unplugged
and turned off. Contact with saw blade may cause personal injury.
• SECURE THE MACHINE TO A STABLE SUPPORTING
SURFACE. Vibration can possibly cause the machine to slide, walk,
or tip over, causing serious injury.
USE ONLY CROSSCUT SAW BLADES recommended for mitre
•
saws. For best results, do not use carbide tipped blades with hook
angles in excess of 7 degrees. Do not use blades with deep gullets.
These can deflect and contact the guard, and can cause damage to
the machine and/or serious injury.
