These heavy-duty circular saws are professional power tools. DO NOT let children come into contact with the tool. Supervision is required when inexperienced operators use this tool. • This product is not intended for use by persons (including children) suffering from diminished physical, sensory or mental abilities; lack of experience, knowledge or skills unless they are supervised by a person responsible for their safety. Children should never be left alone with this product. Electrical Safety The electric motor has been designed for one voltage only. Always check that the battery pack voltage corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate. Also make sure that the voltage of your charger corresponds to that of your mains. Your DEWALT charger is double insulated in accordance with EN 60335; therefore no earth wire is required. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a specially prepared cord available through the DEWALT service organization. Mains Plug Replacement (U.K. & Ireland Only) If a new mains plug needs to be fitted: • Safely dispose of the old plug. • Connect the brown lead to the live terminal in the plug. • Connect the blue lead to the neutral terminal. WARNING: No connection is to be made to the earth terminal. Follow the fitting instructions supplied with good quality plugs. Recommended fuse: 3 A. Using an Extension Cable An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use an approved extension cable suitable for the power input of your charger (see Technical Data). The minimum conductor size is 1 mm2; the maximum length is 30 m. When using a cable reel, always unwind the cable completely. ASSEMBLY AND ADJUSTMENTS WARNING: Prior to assembly and adjustment, always remove the battery pack. Always switch off the tool before inserting or removing the battery pack. WARNING: Use only DEWALT battery packs and chargers. Inserting and Removing the Battery Pack from the Tool (fig. 2) NOTE: For best results, make sure your battery pack is fully charged. The light will shut off without warning when the battery is fully discharged. TO INSTALL THE BATTERY PACK INTO THE TOOL HANDLE 1. Align the battery pack (c) with the rails inside the tool's handle (fig. 2). 2. Slide it into the handle until the battery pack is firmly seated in the tool and ensure that it does not disengage. TO REMOVE THE BATTERY PACK FROM THE TOOL 1. Press the battery release button (m) and firmly pull the battery pack out of the tool handle. 2. Insert battery pack into the charger as described in the charger section of this manual. FUEL GAUGE BATTERY PACKS (FIG. 2) Some DEWALT battery packs include a fuel gauge which consists of three green LED lights that indicate the level of charge remaining in the battery pack. To actuate the fuel gauge, press and hold the fuel gauge button (v). A combination of the three green LED lights will illuminate designating the level of charge left. When the level of charge in the battery is below the usable limit, the fuel gauge will not illuminate and the battery will need to be recharged. NOTE: The fuel gauge is only an indication of the charge left on the battery pack. It does not indicate tool functionality and is subject to variation based on product components, temperature and end-user application. 42
