Changing or Installing a New Saw Blade (Fig.A, C–E)
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn off the tool and
disconnect it from the power source before attempting to move it, change
accessories or make anyadjustments.
CAUTION:
• 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 mitersaw.
Removing the Blade
1. Unplug thesaw.
2. Raise the arm to the upper position and raise the lower guard
(
4
)
as far aspossible.
3. Loosen, but do not remove guard bracket screw
(
36
)
until the bracket can be raised far
enough to access the blade screw
(
23
)
. Lower guard will remain raised due to the position
of the guard bracketscrew.

while carefully rotating the saw blade by hand until
the lockengages.
5. Keeping the button depressed, use the other hand and the 6mm hex wrench provided
(
16
)
to loosen the blade screw. (Turn clockwise, left-hand threads.)
6. Remove the blade screw
(
23
)
, outer blade clamp
(
25
)
, and blade
(
26
)
. The inner blade
clamp
(
27
)
, and if used, the 1" (25.4 mm) blade adapter, may be left on thespindle.
nOTE: For blades with a blade hole of 5/8" (15.88 mm), the 1" (25.4 mm) blade adapter is
notused.
Installing a Blade
1. Unplug thesaw.
2. With the arm raised, the lower guard held open and the guard bracket raised, place the
blade on the spindle, onto the blade adapter [if using a blade with a 1" (25.4 mm) diameter
blade hole] and against the inner blade clamp with the teeth at the bottom of the blade
pointing toward the back of thesaw.
3. Assemble the outer blade clamp onto thespindle.
4. Install the blade screw
(
23
)
and, engaging the spindle lock, tighten the screw firmly with
the 6mm hex wrench provided. (Turn counterclockwise, left-hand threads.)
nOTE: When using blades with a 5/8" (15.88 mm) diameter blade hole, the blade adapter
will not be used and should be stored in a safe place for futureuse.
5. Return the guard bracket to its original position and firmly tighten the guard bracket
screw
(
36
)
to hold bracket inplace.
WARNING:
• The guard bracket must be returned to its original position and the screw
tightened before activating thesaw.
• Failure to do so may allow the guard to contact the spinning saw blade
resulting in damage to the saw and severe personalinjury.
Miter Scale Adjustment (Fig.F)
Place a square against the saw’s fence and blade. (Do not touch the tips of the blade teeth
with the square. To do so will cause an inaccurate measurement.) Unlock miter lock knob
(
5
)
and swing the miter arm until the miter detent latch locks it at the 0˚ miter position. Do not
lock miter lock knob. If the saw blade is not exactly perpendicular to the base fence
(
18
)
, loosen
the three miter scale screws
(
8
)
that hold the miter scale
(
7
)
to the base and move the scale/
miter arm assembly left or right until the blade is perpendicular to the fence, as measured with
the square. Retighten the three screws. Pay no attention to the reading of the miter pointer at
thispoint.
Miter Pointer Adjustment (Fig.A, F, G)
Unlock miter lock knob
(
5
)
and squeeze the miter detent latch
(
6
)
to move the miter arm to the
zero position. Unlock the miter lock knob to allow the miter detent latch to snap into place as
you rotate the miter arm toward zero. Observe the pointer
(
28
)
and miter scale
(
7
)
through the
viewing opening shown in FigureG. If the pointer does not indicate exactly zero, loosen the
pointer screw, adjust the pointer to 0˚ andretighten.
Bevel Square to Table (Fig.A, H)
To align the blade square to the rotary table, lock the arm in the down position. Place a square
against the blade taking care to not have the square on top of a tooth. Loosen the bevel
lock knob
(
5
)
and ensure the arm is firmly against the 0° bevel stop. Move the 0° bevel stop
adjusting screw
(
19
)
as necessary so that the blade is at 0° bevel to the table. Ensure the bevel
override levers are pushed inward to obtain an accurateadjustment.
Bevel Pointer (Fig.I)
If the bevel pointer
(
29
)
does not indicate zero, loosen the screw
(
30
)
that holds it in place and
move the pointer as necessary. Do not remove the steel plate in front of the bevel pointer. This
plate prevents wood resin from accumulating on the bevel scale duringuse.
ASSEMBLY AND ADJUSTMENTS
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.
Adjusting the Bevel Stop to 45° Left (Fig.A, I, J)
nOTE: Adjust the 45° bevel angle only after performing the 0° bevel angle and pointer
adjustment. Ensure the 45° bevel override levers
(
20
)
are pushed inward to obtain an
accurateadjustment.
To adjust the left 45° bevel stop, first loosen the bevel lock knob
(
11
)
and tilt the head to the
left. If the bevel pointer
(
29
)
does not indicate exactly 45°, turn the left bevel stop screw until
the pointer reads45°.
Fence Adjustment (Fig.K)
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn off the tool and
disconnect it from the power source before attempting to move it, change
accessories or make anyadjustments.
In order that the saw can bevel to a full 48° left, the fences can be adjusted to provide
clearance. To adjust a fence, loosen the fence lock knob
(
14
)
, and slide the fence outward.
Make a dry run with the saw turned off and check for clearance. Adjust the fence to be as close
to the blade as practical to provide max imum workpiece support, without interfering with arm
up and down movement. Tighten knob securely. When the bevel operations are complete,
don’t forget to relocate thefence.
nOTE: The guide groove of the fences can become clogged with sawdust. If the guide groove
becomes clogged, use a stick, low pressure air or a vacuum toclear.
Automatic Electric Brake
Your saw is equipped with an automatic electric blade brake which stops the saw blade within
5 seconds of trigger release. This is notadjustable.
On occasion, there may be a delay after trigger release to brake engagement. On rare
occasions, the brake may not engage at all and the blade will coast to astop.
If a delay or “skipping” occurs, turn the saw on and off 4 or 5 times. If the condition persists,
have the tool serviced by an authorized
DeWALT
servicecenter.
Always be sure the blade has stopped before removing it from the kerf plate. The brake
is not a substitute for guards or for ensuring your own safety by giving the saw your
completeattention.
Guard Actuation and Visibility (Fig. L)
CAUTION: Pinch Hazard. To reduce the risk of injury, keep thumb underneath the handle
when pulling the handle down. The lower guard will move up as the handle is pulled
down which could causepinching.
The blade guard on your saw has been designed to automatically raise when the arm is
brought down and to lower over the blade when the arm israised.
The guard can be raised by hand when installing or removing saw blades or for inspection of
the saw. NEVER RAISE THE BLADE GUARD MANUALLY UN LESS THE SAW IS TURNEDOFF.
nOTE: Certain special cuts of large material will require that you manually raise the guard.
The front section of the guard is louvered for visibility while cutting. Although the louvers
dramatically reduce flying debris, there are openings in the guard and safety glasses should be
worn at all times. Refer to Cutting Large Material under SpecialCuts.
Controls
Your compound miter saw has several main controls, which will be discussed briefly here. For
more information on these controls, see the respective sections later in themanual.
Miter Control (Fig.A)
The miter lock knob
(
5
)
and miter detent latch
(
6
)
allow you to miter your saw 50° left and right.
To miter the saw, unlock miter lock knob
(
5
)
by rotating the knob counterclockwise, squeeze
the miter detent latch
(
6
)
and set the miter angle desired on the miter scale. Lock miter lock
knob by rotating clockwise until tight. Override the miter detent latch by unlocking the miter
lock knob and pushing the miter detent override switch
(
22
)
downward. To exit the override,
push the miter detent override switchupward.
Bevel Lock (Fig.J)
The bevel lock knob
(
11
)
allows you to bevel the saw 48° left and 3° to the right. To loosen the
handle and adjust the bevel setting, turn the handle counter clock wise, the saw head bevels
easily to the left. To tighten, turn the handle clockwise. Bevel degree markings are on the
bottom front of the saw arm (Fig.H).
0°/45° Bevel Stop Overrides (Fig.A)
The bevel stop overrides
(
20
)
are held secure with their attachment screw to prevent
inadvertent movement. Use the bit on the blade wrench to loosen the attachment screw. This
allows the slides, to be pulled outward and the saw head to pivot past the 0°/45° mark. Be sure
to retighten the attachment screw whenfinished.
Head Downlock Pin (Fig.A)
To lock the saw head in the down position, push the head down, rotate head lock knob
(
17
)
90° and the spring loaded pin will lock in and release the saw head. This will hold the saw head
safely down for moving the saw from place to place. To release, pull out the head lock knob
and rotate90°.
In order to conveniently carry the miter saw from place to place, a carrying handle
(
13
)
has
been included on the top of the saw arm and hand indentations
(
9
)
in the base, as shown in
FigureA. To transport the saw, lower the arm and rotate the head lock knob
(
17
)
a quarter turn.
It will snap into the lock position.
