Cutting
1. Place the machine with the front part of the saw shoe
on the workpiece.
2. Push the plunge trigger 1
off switch to turn the saw on.

3. Press the saw down to set cutting depth and push it
forward in the cutting direction.
Plunge Cuts (Fig. A2)

WARNING: To avoid kickbacks, the following
instructions MUST be observed when plunge cutting:
• Place the machine onto the guide rail
release the anti-kickback knob
counter-clockwise.
• Turn the machine on and slowly press the saw
down onto the set cutting depth and push
forward in the cutting direction. The cutting
indicators 27 display the absolute front and the
absolute rear cutting points of the saw blade (dia.
6.5" [165 mm]) at maximum cutting depth and
using the guide rail.
• If kickback happened during the plunge cut, turn
the anti-kickback knob
release it from the rail.
• When you have finished the plunge cut, turn
the anti-kickback knob
lock position.
Blades

WARNING: To minimize the risk of eye injury, always
wear ANSI Z87.1 approved eye protection. Carbide
is a hard but brittle material. Foreign objects in the
work piece such as wire or nails can cause tips to
crack or break. Only operate saw when proper saw
blade guard is in place. Mount blade securely in
proper rotation before using, and always use a clean,
sharp blade.

WARNING: Do not cut metal, masonry, glass,
masonry-type planking, cement board, tile or plastic
with this saw.
A dull blade will cause inefficient cutting, overload on the
saw motor, excessive splintering and increase the possibility

forward, then press the on/

18 clockwise into the
of kickback. Change blades when it is no longer easy to
push the saw through the cut, when the motor is straining,
or when excessive heat is built up in the blade. It is a
good practice to keep extra blades on hand so that sharp
blades are available for immediate use. Dull blades can be
sharpened in most areas; see SAWS-SHARPENING in the
yellow pages. Hardened gum on the blade can be removed
with kerosene, turpentine, or oven cleaner. Anti-stick coated
blades can be used in applications where excessive build-up
is encountered, such as pressure treated and green lumber.
Blade Selection (Fig. I)

WARNING: To minimize the risk of kickback and
to ensure proper cutting, the blade selected must
be appropriate for the thickness of the riving
knife provided.
The blade supplied with this circular saw is the correct size
for the riving knife supplied with the saw.
If a different blade is used, check the blade body (plate)
thickness and the blade kerf (cutting) width marked on the
blade or on the blade packaging. The riving knife thickness
must be greater than the body thickness and less than the
kerf width as shown in Figure I.
The riving knife provided with this saw is marked with its
thickness; .067" (1.7 mm). This riving knife should only be
used for blades with a 0.07" (1.8 mm) minimum kerf width
and 0.063" (1.6 mm) maximum body thickness.
Your D WALT track saw is designed for use with 6–1/2"
e
(165 mm) diameter blades that have a 0.79" (20 mm)
diameter bore. Blades must be rated for 6000 rpm operation
(or higher). DO nOT use any abrasive wheels.

A combination blade is furnished with your saw and is an
excellent blade for all general ripping and crosscutting
operations. Use a fine-tooth blade for cutting plywood.

WARNING: VISUALLY EXAMINE CARBIDE BLADES
BEFORE USE. REPLACE IF DAMAGED.
