Electronic overload protection

The electronic overload protection offers additional

safety: if the current exceeds a certain limit, the

electronics switch into overload mode, i.e. the

current is switched ON/OFF several times per

second. Thus, overheating of the motor windings is

avoided. Reduced operator pressure on the

machine makes the electronics switch back into

normal mode.

DI-switch (in-line protector PRCD) (DW590K only)

This machine features a residual current device that

cuts OFF the unit within 15 milliseconds in the event

that there is a difference (>10 mA) between the

currents flowing in and out of the unit. The user is

therefore protected should any water come into

contact with any of the electronic components.

To put the machine into operation, proceed as

follows:

Switch on the PRCD:

• I = ON (red LED lights up).

• Switch on the machine (also refer to the section

Switching ON and OFF).

• To switch OFF, proceed in reverse order.

O = Test button: the switch must break

the circuit (machine switches OFF)

• If in the test mode the switch does not break the

circuit, we recommend that the unit is inspected

by an authorized DEWALT Repair Agent.

• It is not permitted to make any modifications to

the machine, in particular it is not allowed to

open the PRCD or to repair or replace the cable.

• Never use the PRCD as a main switch. Always

switch the PRCD under no load condition.

Electrical safety

The electric motor has been designed for one

voltage only. Always check that the power supply

corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate.

Your DEWALT tool is double insulated in

accordance with EN 50144;

therefore no earth wire is required.

Mains plug replacement

(U.K. & Ireland only)

• Should your mains plug need replacing and you

are competent to do this, proceed as instructed

below. If you are in doubt, contact an authorized

DEWALT repair agent or a qualified electrician.

• Disconnect the plug from the supply.

• Cut off the plug and dispose of it safely; a plug

with bared copper conductors is dangerous if

engaged in a live socket outlet.

• Only fit 13 Amperes BS1363A approved plugs

fitted with the correctly rated fuse (1).

• The cable wire colours, or a letter, will be marked

at the connection points of most good quality

plugs. Attach the wires to their respective points

in the plug (see below). Brown is for Live (L) (2)

and Blue is for Neutral (N) (4).

• Before replacing the top cover of the mains plug

ensure that the cable restraint (3) is holding the

outer sheath of the cable firmly and that the two

leads are correctly fixed at the terminal screws.

Never use a light socket.

Never connect the live (L) or neutral (N)

wires to the earth pin marked E or .

For 115 V units with a power rating exceeding 1500 W,

we recommend to fit a plug to BS4343 standard.

Using an extension cable

If an extension cable is required, use an approved

extension cable suitable for the power input of this

tool (see technical data). The minimum conductor

size is 1.5 mm

. When using a cable reel, always

unwind the cable completely.
