Troubleshooting

Saw won't start.

Check the power supply and ensure the saw is properly plugged in. Verify the power source is functional. If using an extension cord, ensure it is rated for the saw's power requirements.

Poor cutting performance or tear-out.

Ensure you are using the correct blade for the material. Check the blade's sharpness and replace it if necessary. Adjust the cutting speed to suit the material and cutting depth. Ensure the saw is running at the correct speed for the material being cut.

Dust extraction is not working effectively.

Check the dust extraction port and hose for blockages. Make sure the dust extraction system is properly connected to the saw. Empty the dust collection bag or container regularly.

The saw is vibrating excessively.

Ensure the saw is placed on a stable surface. Check the blade for any damage or imbalance. Inspect the saw's internal components for any loose parts. If the issue persists, contact DeWalt support.
