Cleaning
WARNING: Blow dirt and dust out of all air vents with clean, dry air
at least once a week. To minimize the risk of eye injury, always wear
ANSI Z87.1 approved eye protection when performing this.
WARNING: Never use solvents or other harsh chemicals for cleaning
the non-metallic parts of the tool. These chemicals may weaken the
plastic materials used in these parts. Use a cloth dampened only with
water and mild soap. Never let any liquid get inside the tool; never
immerse any part of the tool into a liquid.
Lubrication
Self lubricating ball and roller bearings are used in the tool and
relubrication is not required. However, it is recommended that, once
a year, you take or send the tool to a service center for a thorough
cleaning, inspection and lubrication of the gear case.
Electric Brake (DWE575SB)
Your saw has an automatic electric brake which is designed to stop
the blade from coasting in about two seconds, after you release the
trigger switch. It is useful when making certain cuts in wood where a
coasting blade would result in a wide, imprecise cut.
Occasionally, the brake will not function properly and won't stop the
saw in the 2 seconds discussed above. If this condition persists, turn
the saw on and off four or five times. If the brake still does not stop
the blade in about 2 seconds, the problem may be worn brushes.
