DeWalt D28413, Original Instructions Manual

ENGLISH

11

When using the tool in metal applications, make 

sure that a residual current device (RCD) has been 

inserted to avoid residual risks caused by metal 

swarf.
If the power supply is shut off by the RCD, take the 

tool to authorised

WARNING: 

In extreme working 

conditions, conductive dust can 

accumulate inside the machine housing 

when working with metal. This can result 

in the protective insulation inthe machine 

becoming degraded with a potential risk 

of an electrical shock.

To avoid build-up of metal swarf inside the machine, 

we recommend to clear the ventilation slots on a 

daily basis. Refer to 

Maintenance.

Cutting Metal

For cutting with bonded abrasives, always use 

a protection guard type 1.

When cutting, work with moderate feed, adapted to 

the material being cut. Do not exert pressure onto 

the cutting disc, tilt or oscillate the machine.
Do not reduce the speed of running down cutting 

discs by applying sideward pressure.
The machine must always work in an upgrinding 

motion. Otherwise, the danger exists of it being 

pushed uncontrolled out of the cut.
When cutting profiles and square bar, it is best to 

start at the smallest cross section.

Rough Grinding

Never use a cutting disc for roughing. 

Always use the guard type 27.

The best roughing results are achieved when setting 

the machine at an angle of 30° to 40°. Move the 

machine back and forth with moderate pressure. In 

this manner, the workpiece will not become too hot, 

does not discolour and no grooves are formed.

Cutting Stone

The machine shall be used only for dry cutting. 

For cutting stone,

 it is best to use a diamond 

cutting disc. Operate the machine only with 

additional dust protection mask.

Working Advice

Exercise caution when cutting slots in 

structural walls.

Slots in structural walls are subject to the country-

specific regulations. These regulations are to be 

observed under all circumstances. Before beginning 

work, consult the responsible structural  engineer, 

architect or the construction supervisor.

Using Flap Discs

WARNING: Metal dust build-up. 

Extensive use of flap discs in metal 

applications can result in the increased 

potential for electric shock. To reduce 

this risk, insert an RCD before use 

and clean the ventilation slots daily by 

blowing dry compressed air into the 

ventilation slots inaccordance with the 

below maintenance instructions.

MAINTENANCE

Your D

e

WALT power tool has been designed to 

operate over a long period of time with a minimum 

of maintenance. Continuous satisfactory operation 

depends upon proper tool care and regular cleaning.

WARNING: To reduce the risk 

of serious personal injury, turn 

tool off and disconnect tool from 

power source before making any 

adjustments or removing/installing 

attachments or accessories.

 Before 

reconnecting the tool, depress and 

release the trigger switch to ensure that 

the tool is off

.

Lubrication

Your power tool requires no additional lubrication.

Cleaning

WARNING:

 Blow dirt and dust out of 

the main housing with dry air as often as 

dirt is seen collecting in and around the 

air vents. Wear approved eye protection 

and approved dust mask when 

performing this procedure. 

WARNING: 

Never use solvents or 

other harsh chemicals for cleaning the 

non-metallic parts of the tool. These 

chemicals may weaken the 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.
