DC-270 Safety Warnings – Operating Instructions

This tool performs best when attached to a suitable

vacuum cleaner/dust extractor.

Setting the Cutting Depth

1. The depth of cut can be set in millimetres. To adjust,

loosen the Depth setting knob, slide to the desired

position and tighten. (Diagram A)

2. When cutting wood the depth of cut should be set to

slightly greater than the thickness of the material for best

results.

3. When cutting plastics the depth of cut should be set to

slightly greater than the thickness of the material. If

melting occurs a greater depth setting will improve

results.

4. When cutting metals the depth of cut should be set to

approximately 1.0 mm greater than the material

thickness for best results.

If it is desirable not to mark the surface beneath the

workpiece, the depth can be set to the same as the

material thickness, when cutting wood or plastics, but this

may result in a rough edge.

NB. If the depth control knob becomes difficult to turn,

unscrew it until the rubber seal can be seen. Clean the

surrounding area with a soft brush and then apply a

very small quantity of synthetic grease to the seal.

Blade Changing

NB. Incorrect positioning of the blade can permanently

damage the tool.

1. Ensure the tool is unplugged from the mains supply.

2. Pull guard release knob to open guard (Diagram B )

3. Press spindle lock button (Diagram C)

4. Unscrew blade using torx key

5. Place the new blade onto the blade shaft ensuring the

hole locates correctly and the teeth point forwards in the

direction of the curved arrow. (Diagram D)

6. Replace the safety retaining washer and tighten the

screw.

7. Close the guard before plugging in.

Clamping

It is not normally necessary to clamp the material being cut

as long as it is fully supported on a work surface and held

with one hand. Clamping should be used where:

 The operator is inexperienced in the use of power

saws or weak handed

 Small parts or tough material is to be cut
