DeWalt DW745 Traducido De Las Instrucciones Originales página 42

ENGLISH
• 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.
The attention of UK users is drawn to the
"woodworking machines regulations 1974" and any
subsequent amendments.
• Never place either hand in the blade area when
the saw is connected to the electrical power
source.
• Never use your saw for freehand cuts!
• Do not saw warped, bowed or cupped
workpieces. There must be at least one straight,
smooth side to go against the rip fence or mitre
fence.
• Always support long workpieces to prevent
kickback.
• Do not remove any cut-offs from the blade area
while the blade is running.
Switching on and off (fi g. 1)
• To switch the machine on, press the green start
button.
• To switch the machine off, press the red stop
button.
NOTE: Switching activity may produce short-term
voltage changes or fluctuations. Under unfavourable
conditions in public low-voltage supply systems
impairment of other appliances might appear.
Disturbances will not occur if the impedance is less
than 0.262 Ohms.
Sockets used for these power tools shall be fused
by a 16 Amperes cut-out with an inert characteristic.
Rip Fence Operation (fi g. 14–16)
RAIL LOCK LEVER
The rail lock lever (s) locks the fence in place
preventing movement during cutting. To lock the rail
lever, push it down and toward the rear of the saw.
To unlock, pull it up and toward the front of the saw.
NOTE: When ripping, always lock the rail lock lever.

WORK SUPPORT EXTENSION /NARROW RIPPING FENCE
Your table saw is equipped with a work support
extension to support work that extends beyond the
saw table.
To use the narrow ripping fence in the work support
position, rotate it from its stored position as shown
in Figure 15, and slide the pins into the lower sets of
slots (tt) on both ends of the fence.
To use the narrow ripping fence in the narrow
ripping position, snap the pins into the upper sets
of slots (uu) on both ends of the fence. This feature
will allow 51 mm (2") of extra clearance to the blade.
Refer to Figure 16.
NOTE: Retract the work support extension or adjust
to narrow rip fence position whenever working over
the table.
FINE ADJUSTMENT KNOB
The fine adjustment knob (p) allows smaller
adjustments when setting the fence. Before
adjusting, be sure the rail lock lever is in its up or
unlocked, position.
RIP SCALE POINTER
The rip scale pointer will need to be adjusted for
proper performance of the rip fence if the user
switches between thick and thin kerf blades. The rip
scale pointer only reads correctly for position 1 (zero
to 61 cm), however for position 1 with narrow rip
fence in use add 5.08 cm. See Adjusting the Rip
Scale under Assembly and Adjustments.
Basic saw cuts
• Always use the riving knife.
• Always ensure that the riving knife and blade
guard are correctly aligned.
Ripping (fi g. 1, 17)
WARNING: Sharp edges.
• Set the bevel angle to 0°.
• Adjust the saw blade height. The correct blade
position is to have the tips of three teeth just
protruding through the top surface of the wood.
Adjust the height of the upper blade guard as
necessary.
• Set the parallel fence to the required distance.
• Hold the workpiece flat on the table and against
the fence. Keep the workpiece away from the
blade.
• Keep both hands away from the path of the
blade.
