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.

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.

If an extension cable is required, use an approved extension cable suitable

for the power input of this machine (see technical data). The minimum

Assembly and adjustment

Prior to assembly and adjustment always unplug the tool.

Mounting the table (fig. A, D1 - D6)

approximately half a turn to release the tilt segments (27 in fig. D2).

• Swing back the connecting plate (26) which covers the blade slot in the

table (fig. D1).

• Place the table onto the segments (27) with the blade slot pointing to

the front of the machine (fig. D2).
