Special Cuts
NEVER MAKE ANY CUT UNLESS THE MATERIAL IS SECURED ON THE TABLE AND AGAINST
THE FENCE.
Aluminum Cutting (Fig. A, W)
ALWAYS USE THE APPROPRIATE SAW BLADE MADE ESPECIALLY FOR CUTTING ALUMINUM.
These are available at your local D WALT retailer or D
e
due to their size, shape or surface finish, may require the use of a clamp or fixture to prevent
movement during the cut. Position the material so that you will be cutting the thinnest cross
section, as shown in Figure W. Figure W also illustrates the wrong way to cut these extrusions.
Use a stick wax cutting lubricant when cutting aluminum. Apply the stick wax directly to the
saw blade 39 before cutting. Never apply stick wax to a moving blade.
The wax, available at most hardware stores and industrial mill supply houses, provides proper
lubrication and keeps chips from adhering to the blade.
Be sure to properly secure workpiece.
Refer to saw Blades under Accessories for correct saw blade.
Bowed Material (Fig. X, Y)
When cutting bowed material always position it as shown in Figure X and never like that
shown in Figure Y. Positioning the material incorrectly will cause it to pinch the blade near the
completion of the cut.
Cutting Plastic Pipe or Other Round Material
Plastic pipe can be easily cut with your saw. It should be cut just like wood and ClAMPED
OR hElD FiRMlY TO ThE FEnCE TO KEEP iT FROM ROlling. This is extremely important
when making angle cuts.
Cutting Large Material (Fig. Z)
Occasionally you will encounter a piece of wood a little too large to fit beneath the lower
guard. If this occurs, simply place your right thumb on the upper side of the guard and roll the
guard up just enough to clear the workpiece, as shown in Figure Z. Avoid doing this as much
as possible, but if need be, the saw will operate properly and make the bigger cut. NEVER TIE,
TAPE, OR OTHERWISE HOLD THE GUARD OPEN WHEN OPERATING THIS SAW.
MAINTENANCE

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn tool off, and remove
the battery pack before transporting, making any adjustments, cleaning,
repairing, or removing/installing attachments or accessories. An accidental
start‑up can cause injury.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, DO NOT touch the sharp
points on the blade with fingers or hands while performing any maintenance.
DO NOT use lubricants or cleaners (particularly spray or aerosol) in the vicinity of the plastic
guard. The polycarbonate material used in the guard is subject to attack by certain chemicals.
1. All bearings are sealed. They are lubricated for life and need no further maintenance.
2. Periodically clean all dust and wood chips from around AND UNDER the base and the
rotary table. Even though slots are provided to allow debris to pass through, some dust
will accumulate.
Cleaning

WARNING: Blow dirt and dust out of all air vents with clean, dry air at least once a week.
To minimize the risk of eye injury, always wear ANSI Z87.1 approved eye protection when
performing this procedure.

WARNING: Never use solvents or other harsh chemicals for cleaning the non‑metallic
parts of the tool. These chemicals may weaken the plastic materials used in these parts.
Use a cloth dampened only with water and mild soap. Never let any liquid get inside the
tool; never immerse any part of the tool into a liquid.
Worklight Cleaning
For the best worklight performance, perform the following maintenance regularly.
1. Carefully clean sawdust and debris from worklight lens with a cotton swab.
2. DO NOT use solvents of any kind, they may damage the lens.
3. Dust build‑up can block the worklight and prevent it from accurately indicating the line
of cut.
4. Follow miter saw's instruction manual to remove and install blade.
5. With blade removed from saw, clean pitch and build‑up from blade. Pitch and debris can
interfere with the worklight and prevent it from accurately indicating the line of cut.

Dust Duct Cleaning
Depending on your cutting environment, saw dust can clog the dust duct and may prevent
dust from flowing away from the cutting area properly. With the saw unplugged and the saw
head raised fully, low pressure air or a large diameter dowel rod can be used to clear the dust
out of the dust duct.
