ENGLISH

• Place the wood to be cut against the fence (11). Take hold of machine

handle and press in the head lock-up release lever (2).

• Pull down the head approximately 10 mm and release the lock-up lever.

• Switch on the machine and depress the head to allow the blade to cut

through the workpiece and enter the table slot.

• Allow the blade to cut freely. Do not force.

• After completing the cut, switch off the machine and return the head to

its upper rest position.

Vertical mitre cross-cut (fig. K & L)

• Loosen the mitre clamping knob (8) and lift the positive stop lever (7)

upwards (fig. K).

• Move the head left or right to the required angle. There are preset

positions at 15°, 22.5°, 30° and 45° (fig. L).

• If any intermediate angle or 48° is required hold the head firmly and

lock by tightening the mitre clamp knob.

• Always ensure that the mitre clamp knob is locked tightly before cutting.

• Proceed as for a vertical straight cross-cut.

Bevel cross-cut (fig. A1, G1 & M)

Bevel angles can be set from 0° to 48° to the left. Bevels up to 45° can be

cut with the head set between zero and a maximum of 45° mitre position

right or left (fig. M).

• Loosen the bevel clamp handle (12) and set the bevel as desired (fig. A1).

• Use the 45°/48° adjustment handle (50) if required (fig. G1).

• Tighten the bevel clamp handle firmly.

• Proceed as for a vertical straight cross-cut.

DW711 - Sawing in the bench mode

Ripping (fig. A1, A2, C1, D1 & N)

• Set the blade to the vertical position.

• Loosen the table locking knobs, both main (37) (fig. D1) and additional

(3) (fig. A1), but do not take off. Set the depth of cut by sliding the table

(14) (fig. A2) up or down. The correct position is to have the tips of

three teeth above the top surface of the wood.

• Loosen the sliding fence locking knob (35) (fig. C1) and slide the sliding

fence front or rear in order to support as much of the workpiece as

possible. At least the rear end of the fence should be level with the

front of the riving knife.

• Lock the table locking knobs tightly.

• Ensure the plastic guard plate (18) is in fixed position (fig. A2).

• Ensure that the rip fence is parallel with the blade.

• Set the rip fence for the width of cut required by using the scale let into

the front of the table. Set the sliding rip fence to the required position.

• Switch on the machine.

• Slowly feed the workpiece underneath the front of the upper blade

guard, keeping it firmly pressed against the rip fence. Allow the teeth to

cut and do not force the workpiece through the blade. The blade

speed should be kept constant.

• Remember to always use the push stick (57) (fig. N).

• After completing the cut, switch off the machine.

Optional accessories

Dust extraction

A dust extraction kit is available for optimal dust extraction.

Clamping the workpiece (fig. A3)

• In most cases, the action of the blade is sufficient to hold the material

firmly against the fence.

• If the material has a tendency to lift or come forward from the fence,

preferably use the optional material clamp (23).

• Always use the clamp if cutting non-ferrous metals.

Sawing short workpieces (fig. A3)

It is advisable to use the length stop for short workpieces (27) both for batch

sawing and for short individual workpieces of different lengths. The length

stop can only be used in conjunction with a pair of optional guide rails (21).

Sawing long workpieces (fig. A3)

Always support long workpieces.

Figure A3 shows the ideal configuration for sawing long workpieces when

the saw is used free-standing (all items available as an option).

These items (except the legstand and the material clamp) are required

both on the infeed and the outfeed side:

- Legstand (28) (supplied with mounting instructions).

- Guide rails (500 or 1,000 mm) (21).

- Stands (25) to support the guide rails. Do not use the stands to

support the machine! The height of the stands is adjustable.

- Material support plates (22).

- Table end plate (20) for supporting the rails (also when working on

an existing bench).

- Material clamp (23).

- Swivelling stop (24).

• Place your saw on the legstand and fit the guide rails.

• Firmly screw the material support plates (22) to the guide rails (21).

• Install the table end plates (20).

• Install the swivelling stop (24) to the rear rail.

• Use the swivelling stop (24) to adjust the length of medium and long

workpieces. It can be adjusted sideways or swung out of the way

when not in use.

Using the roller table (fig. A3 & A5)

The roller table (33) makes the handling of large and long pieces of wood

very easy (fig. A5). It can be connected either to the left or to the right of the

machine. The roller table requires the use of the optional legstand (fig. A3).

Assemble the roller table following the instructions supplied

with the legstand.

• Replace the short support bars provided with the legstand with the

irregular rails from the table on the side the table is to be used.

• Follow all instructions provided with the roller table.
