Always select your saw blade with great

care.

Setting the adjustable saw shoe (fig. C)

The saw shoe can be adjusted to limit the depth of

cut and prolong the life of your saw blade.

• Push the release lever (6) down.

• Slide the saw shoe (5) into the desired position.

• Push the lever up to secure the shoe in place.

DW311K - Setting the pendulum stroke (fig. D)

The adjustable pendulum stroke guarantees a perfect

cutting stroke for different materials. The tool can be

used in the following operating modes:

Straight reciprocating motion: for cutting

metal and tubes and for finishing wood.

Orbital motion: for fast cutting of wood.

• Turn the selector (3) into the required position

aligning the mark (9) with the arrow (10).

Instructions for use

• Always observe the safety instructions

and applicable regulations.

• Ensure the material to be sawn is

secured in place.

• Apply only a gentle pressure to the tool

and do not exert side pressure on the

saw blade. If possible, work with the saw

shoe pressed against the workpiece.

This prevents damage to the blade and

stops the tool from jerking and vibrating.

• When sawing in walls or floors be aware

of the location of pipework and wiring.

Always hold the tool by its handle.

• Avoid overloading.

• Let the blade run freely for a few seconds

before starting the cut. Never switch on

the tool when the saw blade is jammed

in the workpiece or in contact with the

material.

Prior to operation:

• Mount the appropriate type of saw blade.

Use narrow saw blades for cutting curves.

Use flexible bimetal saw blades for hard-to-reach

positions (e.g. close to walls, etc.).

Switching on and off (fig. A)

• To run the tool, press the variable speed switch

(1). The pressure exerted on the variable speed

switch determines the tool speed.

• To stop the tool, release the switch.

Always switch off the tool when work is finished

and before unplugging.

DW311K - Setting the electronic sawing speed

(fig. A)

The speed control dial (2) can be used for advance

setting of the required range of speed.

• Turn the electronic speed control dial to the

required level. The required setting depends on

the thickness and kind of material.

• Use high speeds for sawing soft materials such

as wood. Use low speeds for sawing metal.

After using the tool for an extended

period on low speed settings, run it for

approx. 3 minutes on maximum no-load

speed.

Cutting wood

• Clamp the workpiece securely and remove all

nails and metal objects.

• Holding the tool with both hands, work with the

saw shoe pressed against the workpiece.

Plunge cutting in wood (fig. E)

• Rest the saw shoe on the workpiece in such

a position that the blade forms an appropriate

angle for the plunge cut.

• Switch the tool on and slowly feed in the blade.

Make sure that the saw shoe remains in contact

with the workpiece at all times.

Pocket cuts

• Measure and mark the required pocket cut.

• Using a narrow saw blade rest the bottom of the

saw shoe on the workpiece and make sure that

the blade is positioned on the cutting line.

If necessary, e.g. in confined spaces, use the

outer edge of the saw shoe as your guideline.
