WARNING: Always wear proper personal hearing protection that conforms to ANSI
S12.6 (S3.19) during use. Under some conditions and duration of use, noise from this product
may contribute to hearing loss.
WARNING: NEVER MAKE ANY CUT UNLESS THE MATERIAL IS SECURED ON THE TABLE
AND AGAINST THE FENCE.
WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other
construction activities contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth
defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paints,
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce
your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety
equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
• Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and
other construction activities. Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas with
soap and water. Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may
promote absorption of harmful chemicals.
WARNING: Use of this tool can generate and/or disperse dust, which may cause serious and
permanent respiratory or other injury. Always use NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection
appropriate for the dust exposure. Direct particles away from face and body.
For your convenience and safety, the following warning labels are on your miter saw.

saw will operate on alternating current. The switch is susceptible to failure if direct current is used.
A voltage decrease of 10 percent or more will cause a loss of power and overheating. All D
EWALT
tools are factory tested. If this tool does not operate, check the power supply.

make repetitive cuts of the same length from 0 to 42" (107cm).
Clamp: DW7082 (similar model included)
Used for firmly clamping workpiece to the saw table for precision cutting.
Dust Bag: DW7053 (included with some models)
Equipped with a zipper for easy emptying, the dust bag will capture the majority of the sawdust
produced.
Crown Molding Fence: DW7084
