Can I use any brand of battery with this saw?
No, this saw is designed to work with DeWalt 20V MAX batteries only.
How do I adjust the bevel angle?
Locate the bevel adjustment lever or knob on the saw. Loosen it, adjust the saw to the desired angle using the angle scale, and then tighten the lever or knob.
How do I change the blade?
Always unplug the saw or remove the battery before changing the blade. Consult the owner's manual for specific instructions on blade changing procedures, typically involving a blade wrench and spindle lock.
What is the purpose of the LED light?

How do I clean the saw?
Use compressed air or a brush to remove dust and debris after each use. Avoid using solvents or harsh chemicals. Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth.
Can I use this saw to cut metal?
The saw is primarily designed for wood and construction materials. Check the blade compatibility and ensure that you use a blade specifically designed for the type of metal you are cutting, if cutting metal at all.
Troubleshooting
Saw won't start.
Check that the battery is properly installed and charged. Also, ensure the switch is fully engaged.
Poor cut quality.
Check the blade for sharpness and proper installation. Make sure you are using the correct blade for the material. Ensure the saw is not being forced through the material.
Excessive vibration.
Check the blade for damage or imbalances. Ensure the saw is resting on a stable surface during operation. Make sure all screws are tight.
Dust extraction is not working.
Verify that the dust extraction hose is securely connected to both the saw and the vacuum system. Check for any blockages in the hose or the saw's dust port.
